《Ol’ Man River (From ”Showboat”)》歌词

[00:00:11] Ol' Man River -Paul Robeson

[00:00:36] Darkies all work on the Mississippi

[00:00:40] Darkies all work while the white folks play

[00:00:41] Pullin' dose boats from the dawn till the sunset

[00:00:43] Gettin' no rest till the judgment day

[00:00:44] Don't look up and don't look down

[00:00:45] You don't dare make the rich boss frown

[00:00:47] Bend your knees and bow your head

[00:00:48] And tote that barge until you're dead

[00:00:50] Let me go away from the Mississippi

[00:00:52] Let me go away from the wise man boss

[00:01:14] Show me that stream called the River of Jordan

[00:01:20] That's the old stream that I long to cross

[00:01:22] Old Man River

[00:01:23] That Old Man River

[00:01:24] He doesn't say nothin' he must know somethin'

[00:01:27] He just keeps rollin'

[00:01:30] He keeps on rollin'

[00:01:31] A long ol' river forever keeps rollin' on

[00:01:34] He don't plant taters

[00:01:44] He don't plant cotton

[00:01:47] And then they plant 'em

[00:01:50] Is soon forgotten

[00:01:54] But Ol' Man River

[00:01:57] He just keeps rollin'

[00:01:59] A long ol' river keeps hearing that song

[00:02:07] You and me we sweat and strain

[00:02:12] Body all achin' and racked with pain

[00:02:16] Tote that barge lift that bale

[00:02:20] You gets a little drunk

[00:02:22] And you land in jail

[00:02:32] I get weary and sick of tryin'

[00:02:39] I'm tired of livin' and scared of dyin'

[00:02:48] But Ol' Man River he just keeps rollin' along
