Ol’ Man River歌词完整版
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
