Ol‟ Man Riv - er, dat Ol‟ Man Riv - er, He must know sump – in‟, but

don‟t plant ta - ters, he don‟t plant cot - ton, An‟ dem that plants „em are

don‟t say noth – in‟, He just keeps roll - in‟ He keeps on roll - in‟ a - long. He

soon for - got - ten; But Ol‟ Man Riv - er He jus‟ keeps roll - in; a -

long. You an‟ me, we sweat an‟ strain, Bod - y all brok - en an‟ racked wid pain.

“Tote that barge!” “Lift that bale!” Git a lit - tle drunk an‟ you land in jail. _____

Ah gets wea - ry an‟ sick of try - in‟, Ah‟m tired of liv - in‟ an‟ skeered of dy - in‟, But

Ol‟ Man Riv - er, He just keeps roll - in‟ a - long. ________________________________
