paroles de chanson Ol' Man River - Kenneth Spencer

There's an ol' man called the Mississippi
That's the ol' man that I want's to be
What is he care if the world got troubles
What is he care if the land ain't free

Ol' man river
That ol' man river
He must know some
But don't say nothing
He just keeps rolling
He keeps on rolling along

He don't plant tators
He don't plant cotton
And 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
You gets a little drunk
And you lands in jail

I gets weary
And sick of trying
As tired of living
And scared of dying
But ol' man river
He just keeps rolling along

(Ol' man river
That ol' river
He must know something
But don't say nothing
He just keeps rolling
He keeps on rolling along)

Long ol' river forever keeps rolling on

(He don't plant tater
He don't plant cotton
And them that plants 'em
Is soon forgotten
But ol' man river
He just keeps rolling along

Long ol' river, keeps hearing that song

You and me,
We sweat and strain
Body all aching
And wracked with pain
Tote that barge
Lift that bale
If gets a little drunk
And you lands in jail

Ah, gets weary
And sick of trying
I'm tired of living
And scared of dying
But ol' man river
He just keeps rolling along
