Ol' Man River - Cilla Black

Ol' man river

That ol' man river

He don’t say nothing

But he must know something

Cause he just keeps rolling

He keeps rolling along

He don’t plant tators

He don’t plant cotton

Them that plants 'em is soon forgotten

But ol' man river

He just keeps rolling along

You and me

We sweat and strain

Body all aching

And wracked with pain

Tote that barge

Lift that bale

Get a little drunk

And you land in jail

I gets weary

Sick of trying

I’m tired of living

Feared of dying

But ol' man river

He’s rolling along
