i'm a man

Lyrics

ol' man river, that ol' man river, he don't say nothing, but he must know something, that ol' man river, he just keeps rolling along, he don't plant tater's, and we all know he don't pick cotton, but them that plant'em are soon forgotten, that ol' man river, he just keeps rolling along, oh yes he does, you and me we sweat and toil, our bodies all naked and racked with pain, now listen, lift that bar you better tote that bail, and if ya get a little drunk, you'll land in jail, i'm so weary, i'm sick of trying, i'm tried of livin', but afraid of dyin', that that god darn old river, he just keeps rolling along, keep on rolling along, keep on rolling along, ol' man river don't you stop your way, keep on running from the north, the south, the east or west
