Send Ol' Man River Ringtone to your Cell



Ol' man river, that ol' man river
He must know something but he don't say nothing
That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along

He don't plant 'taters, he don't plant cotton
'Cause them that plants them is soon forgotten
And ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along

'Cause you and me, we sweat and strain
Body all achin' and wracked with pain
Tote that barge, lift that bale

Get a little drunk and you land in jail
But I get weary and sick of tryin' 'cause I'm tired of livin'
That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along

You and me, we sweat and strain
Body all achin' and wracked with pain
Tote that barge, lift that bale

Get a little drunk and you land in jail
But I get weary and sick of tryin'
Cause I'm tired of livin' but I'm scared of dyin'
That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along



Send Ol' Man River Ringtone to your Cell
