Ol' Man River - Ray Charles-歌词

Ol' Man River - Ray Charles

Here we all work on the mississippi

Here we all work while the white folk play

Pullin' them boats from the dawn till sunset

Gettin' 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 'way from the mississippi

Let me go 'way 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 ol' man river that ol' man river

He must know somethin' the man don't say nothin'

I know he just keep on rollin'

I want you to know he keeps on rollin' along

He don't plant tatters he don't plant cotton

And them folk they plant 'em

I want you to know they're soon forgotten

But ol' man river somehow he just keep on rollin' rollin' along

You and me we got to sweat and strain

Body's all achin' and racked with pain

Tote that barge somebody said lift that bail

You drink a little scotch I want you to know you gonna land in jail

You know I get weary and so sick of trying

I'm tired of livin' but I'm scared I'm scared of dyin'

But that ol' man and the river I say he just

The man just keep rollin' on long
