Ol' Man River - Melanie

That old man river

That old man river

He don’t say nothing but he must know something

He’s old man river

He just keeps rolling along

Well I get weary and sick of trying

I’m tired of living and I’m feared of dying

He’s old man river and he just keeps rolling along

He don’t plant (po)tatoes

He don’t plant cotton

And them that plants them is son forgotten

He’s old man river and he just keeps rolling along

That old man river

That old man river

He don’t say nothing but he must know something

He’s old man river and he just keeps rolling along
