Old Man River
The Temptations

Old man river
that old man river
He don't say nothing
but he must know something
For old man river
he just keeps rolling along

He don't plant taters 
he don't pick cotton
And them that plants em 
they're soon forgotten
While old man river,
he jest keeps rolling along

You and me, we sweat and strain
Body all aching and racked with pain
Towed that bargem lift the bail
Get a little drunk and you land in jail

In get weary 
and sick of trying
I'm tired of living 
and afraid of dying
While old man river 
he just keeps rolling along
Old man river
he just keeps rolling along
