J.D. Sumner - Old Man River | Текст песни

Ol` Man River

Миссисипи 1
There`s an old man called the Mississippi;
That`s the old man that I`d like to be!
What does he care if the world's got troubles?
What does he care if the land ain't free?

Ol` man river,
That ol` man river
He must know something
But don`t say nothing,
He just keeps rolling,
He keeps on rolling along.

He don't plant taters,
He don't plant cotton,
And them that plants them
Is soon forgotten.
But ol` man river,
He just keeps rolling along.

You and me, we sweat and strain,
Body all aching and wracked with pain.
Tote that barge!
Lift that bale!
Get a little drunk
And you land in jail.

I gets weary
And sick of trying
I`m tired of living
And scared of dying,
But ol` man river,
He just keeps rolling along.

Darkies all work on the Mississippi
Darkies all work while the white folks play
Pulling them boats from the dawn to sunset
Getting no rest till the judgment day.

Don't look up and don't look down
You don't dar'st make the white boss frown
Bend your knees and bow your head
And pull that rope until you're dead.

Let me go away from the Mississippi
Let me go away from the white man boss
Show me that stream called the River Jordan
That's the old stream that I long to cross.

Ol` man river, that ol` man river
He must know something, but don`t say nothing,
He keeps on rolling along.

Long old river
Forever keeps rolling on

(Don't plant taters, he don't plant cotton)
(And them that plants `em, is soon forgotten)
But ol` man river
He just keeps rolling along.

Long old river
Keeps singing this song.

You and me, we sweat and strain,
Body all aching and racked with pain,
Tote that barge. (And) lift that bale.
(You) get a little drunk and you lands in jail.

I gets weary, and sick of trying
I`m tired of living. But I`m scared of dying,
But ol` man river
He just keeps rolling along!
