Tekst piosenki
[Verse] Here we all work, on the Mississippi Here we all work, while the white folk play Pulling them boats from the dawn till sunset Getting no rest till the judgment day Don't look up and don't look down You don't dare make a white man frown Bend your knees and bow your head And pull that rope until you're dead Let me go away from the Mississippi Let me go away from the white man boss Show me that stream called the River Jordan That's the old stream that I long to cross I know that Old Man River, that Old Man River He must know something, the man don't say nothing I know he just keep on rolling I want you to know he keeps on rolling along He don't plant tatters, he don't plant cotton And them folk they plant them I want you to know they're soon forgotten But Old Man River, somehow he just keep on rolling, rolling along You and me, we got to sweat and strain Body's all aching and racked with pain Tote that barge, somebody said, "Lift that bail" You drink a little scotch, I want you to know, you going to land in jail You know I get weary and so sick of trying I'm tired of living, but I'm scared, I'm scared of dying But that Old Man and the river, I say he just The man just keep rolling on
