[00:08.000]Ol' man river, that ol' man river
[00:12.000]He must know something, but he don't say nothing
[00:17.000]That ol' man river, he just keep rollin' along
[00:27.000]He don't plant 'taters, he don't plant cotton
[00:32.000]'Cause them that plants them is soon forgotten
[00:36.000]And ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
[00:45.000]'Cause you and me, we sweat and strain
[00:50.000]Body all achin' and wracked with pain
[00:55.000]Tote that barge, lift that bale
[00:59.000]Get a little drunk and you land in jail
[01:07.000]But I get weary and sick of tryin'
[01:11.000]'Cause I'm tired of livin' but I'm scared of dyin'
[01:16.000]That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
[01:26.000]You and me, we sweat and strain
[01:30.000]Body all achin' and wracked with pain
[01:35.000]Tote that barge, lift that bale
[01:39.000]Get a little drunk and you land in jail
[01:47.000]But I get weary and sick of tryin'
[01:52.000]'Cause I'm tired of livin' but I'm scared of dyin'
[01:56.000]That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
