paroles de chanson Ol' Man River - Lou Rawls
Dere's
an
ol'
man
called
de
Mississippi
Dat's
de
ol'
man
dat
I'd
like
to
be
What
does
he
care
if
de
world's
got
troubles
What
does
he
care
if
de
land
ain't
free
Ol'
man
river,
dat
ol'
man
river
He
mus'
know
sumpin',
but
don't
say
nuthin'
He
jes'
keeps
rollin'
He
keeps
on
rollin'
along
He
don'
plant
taters,
he
don't
plant
cotton
An'
dem
dat
plants'
em
is
soon
forgotten
But
ol'man
river
He
jes'
keeps
rollin'
along
You
an'
me,
we
sweat
an'
strain
Body
all
achin'
an'
wracked
wid
pain,
Tote
dat
barge!
Lif'
dat
bale!
Git
a
little
drunk
an'
you
lands
in
jail
Ah
gits
weary
an'
sick
of
tryin'
Ah'm
tired
of
livin'
an'
skeered
of
dyin'
But
ol'
man
river
He
jes'
keeps
rolling'
along
Niggers
all
work
on
de
Mississippi**
Niggers
all
work
while
de
white
folks
play**
Pullin'
dose
boats
from
de
dawn
to
sunset
Gittin'
no
rest
till
de
judgement
day
(Don't
look
up
an'
don't
look
down)
(You
don'
dar'st
make
de
white
boss
frown)
(Bend
your
knees
an'
bow
your
head)
(An'
pull
dat
rope
until
you're
dead)
Let
me
go
'way
from
the
Mississippi
Let
me
go
'way
from
de
white
man
boss
Show
me
dat
stream
called
de
river
Jordan
Dat's
de
ol'
stream
dat
I
long
to
cross
(Ol'
man
river,
dat
ol'
man
river)
(He
mus'
know
sumpin',
but
don't
say
nothin')
(He
just
keeps
rollin')
(He
keeps
on
rollin'
along)
Long,
low
river
Forever
keeps
rollin'
(Don'
plant
taters,
he
don'
plant
cotton)
(And
dem
dat
plants'
em
is
soon
forgotten)
(But
ol'
man
river
(He
jes'
keeps
rollin'
along)
Long
low
river
Keeps
singin'
dis
song
You
an'
me,
we
sweat
an'
strain
Body
all
achin'
and
wracked
wid
pain
Tote
dat
barge!
Lift
dat
bale!
Git
a
little
drunk
and
ya
lands
in
jail
Ah
gits
weary
an'
sick
o'
tryin'
Ah'm
tired
o
livin'
an'
skeered
o'
dyin'
But
ol'
man
river
He
jes'
keeps
rollin'
along!
