Old Man River (Original Mix) - Ruth Brown (露丝·布朗)
Written by：Kern/AHMET ERTEGUN/Jerry Wexler/Jesse Stone
That's the old stream that I long to 'cross
Well old man river old man river
He must know something but he don't don't say nothing no
He just keeps rolling he keeps on just rolling along
Well he don't don't plant taters
He don't plant cotton
Them what plants 'em well is soon soon forgotten way
But old man river
Keeps are just rolling along
Well you and me
Sweat and strain
My bodies all aching and it's wracked with pain
Tote that barge
It lift that bale
You get a little drunk and you land in jail
I get weary long
Sick of trying
Tired of living but I'm scared scared of dying way
But old man river
Keeps a just rolling along
Old man river he just keeps rolling along
