Ol' Man River - Howard Keel/Betty Hutton
Dere's an ol' man called de Mississippi
Dat's de ol' man dat I'd like to be
What does he care if de world's got troubles
What does he care if de land ain't free
Ol' man river
Dat ol' man river
He mus'know sumping
But don't say nuthing
He jes'keeps rolling
He keeps on rolling along
He don't plant taters
He don't plant cotton
An' dem dat plants'em
Is soon forgotten
But ol'man river
He jes keeps rolling along
You an'me we sweat an' strain
Body all achin' an' rack'd wid pain
Tote dat barge
Lif' dat bale
Git a little drunk
An' you land in jail
Ah gits weary
An' sick of trying
Ah'm tired of living
An' skeered of dying
But ol' man river
He jes'keeps rollingg along
