Song Lyrics
Jest keeps rollin along, bend your knees and bow your head
Show me that stream called the river jordan, that s the old stream that i long to cross, that ol man river
He keeps on rollin along, and pull that rope until you re dead River, he don t plant taters
and ol man river
Let me go way from the white man boss, ya get a little drunk and ya lands in ja-ail
gettin no rest till the judgment day
Show me that stream called the river jordan, let me go way from the white man boss
Ol man river, but i m feared of dyin Ol', but ol man river
Show me that stream called the river jordan, ol man river Ol', gettin no rest till the judgment day
that ol man river
And pull that rope until you re dead, that ol man river
Bodies all achin and wracked with pain, ya get a little drunk and ya lands in ja-ail
He must know somepin, let me go way from the mississippi, he just keeps rollin along
Ol man river, let me go way from the white man boss
Ya don t dast make the white boss frown, he just keeps rollin along Man, let me go way from the white man boss
But i m feared of dyin, ol man river
And he don t plant cotton, he don t plant taters
he just keeps rollin along
he just keeps rollin
ya get a little drunk and ya lands in ja-ail
But i m feared of dyin, gettin no rest till the judgment day
Jest keeps rollin along, that ol man river Man, bend your knees and bow your head
and ol man river
but i m feared of dyin
Don t look up and don t look down, that ol man river, don t look up and don t look down
Here we all work while the white folk play, let me go way from the mississippi Bocelli, show me that stream called the river jordan
He don t plant taters, pullin them boats from the dawn till sunset, we sweat and strain
Let me go way from the white man boss, bend your knees and bow your head Andrea, gettin no rest till the judgment day
He don t plant taters, bend your knees and bow your head Ol', let me go way from the mississippi
That ol man river, he don t plant taters, i m tired of livin
He must know somepin, he must know somepin
jest keeps rollin along
he just keeps rollin
But he don t say nothin, ol man river
That ol man river, let me go way from the white man boss
and pull that rope until you re dead
We sweat and strain, here we all work while the white folk play
i gets weary and so sick of tryin
gettin no rest till the judgment day
I gets weary and so sick of tryin, don t look up and don t look down, ol man river
Tote that barge and lift that bale, ya don t dast make the white boss frown
Jest keeps rollin along, he keeps on rollin along, show me that stream called the river jordan
don t look up and don t look down
He just keeps rollin along, gettin no rest till the judgment day
Here we all work while the white folk play, but i m feared of dyin Man, here we all work long the mississippi
pullin them boats from the dawn till sunset
Here we all work long the mississippi, here we all work long the mississippi, show me that stream called the river jordan
