Paul Robeson

Kishore Kumar Hits — Paul Robeson - Ol Man River (London Stage Version) şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Paul Robeson

albüm: Ol' Man Paul Robeson

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 somethin'
But don't say nothin'
He just keeps rollin'
He keeps on rollin' along.
He don't plant Taters
He don't plant Cotton
And them that plant em,' is soon forgotten
But ol' man river
He just keeps rollin' along.
You and me, we sweat and strain
Body all aching and racket with pain
Tote that barge
Lift that bale
Get a little drunk, and you lands in jail.
I gets weary
And sick of tryin'
I'm tired of livin'
And scared of dyin'
But ol' man river, he just keeps rolling along.
Let me go away from the Mississipi
Let me go away form the white man boss
Show me that stream called the river Jordan
That's the ol' stream that I long to cross.
The long ol' river forever keeps rollin' on.
The long ol' river keeps hearin' that song,
You and me, we sweat and strain
Body all achin' and racket with pain,
Tote that barge and lift that bale,
We gets a little drunk and we lands in jail
I gets weary and sick of tryin'
I'm tired of livin'
And scared of dyin'
But ol' man river
He just keeps rolling along.
