Ol' Man River
     Words and Music by Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein II

     Ol' man river, that ol' man river
     He must know something, but he don't say nothing
     That ol' man river, he just keep rollin' along

     He don't plant 'taters
     He don't plant cotton
     Cause them that plants them is soon forgotton
     And ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along

     Cause you and me, we sweat and strain
     Body all achin' and wracked with pain
     Tote that barge, lift that bail
     Get a little drunk and you land in jail
     But I get weary and sick of tryin'
     Cause I'm tired of livin'
     But I'm scared of dyin'
     That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
