Old man river

That old man river

He just won't

Won't do nothing

He just won't

Say nothing

He just keeps on rolling

Alone

He told plan kind

He don't plan till

And this that bless

Is all forgotten

But that old man river

Keeps on rolling alone

O we come

A long way

Through the stars

And the rain

Our hearts

Are heavy later

And read with pay

Look up my prayer

You go through

Through this

Without my god

You don't have no free

I get so weary

So tired of trying

I'm tired

Tired of living

But i

Scared of dying

But that old man river

He keeps on rolling

Alone

Oh lord oh lord oh lord

I said we come such a long way

We made it through the starts

And sometimes the rain

You see how our heart

Were so heavy later

And i begged for rest

With prayer

Which you look up

Try to look up my prayer

You go through

You can make it through this

But if you don't have my god

You don't have no free

I get so weary

So tired

So tired of trying

I'm tired

I'm tired of living

But i'm so scared

I'm scared of dying

That old old man river

Oh yeah

Keeps on

Ye he does

One more time that old

That old man river

Don't have nothing to do but keep on

Yeah they keep on roll rolling alone
