Don’t look up you don’t look down you don’t dare make the boss man frown Bend your knees and bow your head and pull that rope until you’re de…….ad. Let me go away from the Mississippi let me go away from the white man boss Show me that stream called the River of Jordan that’s the old stream that I long to cross. Old Man River that Old Man River he don’t say nothin’ but he must know somethin’ He just keeps rollin’ he keeps on rollin’ a..long He don’t plant tatters and he don’t plant taters and them what plant ’em are soon forgotten But Old Man Riv-er just keeps rollin’ a..long. You and me we sweat and strain body all achin’ and racked with pain Tote that barge lift that bale you get a little drunk and you land in ja……il I get weary and sick of tryin’ I’m tired of liv...in’ but I’m scared of dy….in’ And Old Man Riv..er he just keeps roi…lin’ a…long ........... (Outro) That Old Man Riv…er he just keeps ro….llin’ a…..lo…o……ng
