[Verse 1]
[G]Here we all work on a Mississippi
[C]Here we all[G] work while the white
[D]folks play
Pullin' [G]those boats
from the dawn to [C]sunset
Gettin' [G]no rest [D]till the judgment [G]day
Don't look [Bm]up and don't
look down
You don't [Em]ask, make the white
[F#]boss frown
[Bm]Bend your [Em]knees, bow [Bm]your head
[C#dim]Pull that[Bm] rope[C] until you'[Bm]re dead[Am]
[D]Let me go [G]away from the[C] Mississippi
Let me [Em]go away [E]from
the white man [Am]boss
Show me [F#dim]that stream called
the River Jordan
[G]That's the [F]old stream that
[Adim]I long t[D]o [G]cross
[D]Old [G]Man [Em]River, [G]that Old Man [C]River
[G]He [C]must know something,
[G]don't say noth[Em]ing,
he [Am]just keeps [D]rolling,
keep[Am]s on [D]rolling alo[G]ng.[C]
[D]He don't plant tee[G]ters,
[Em]don'[G]t plant cows[C],
[G]Them that [Am]plants them he's
[G]soon [Bbdim]for gotten,
But [D]old man [Em]Rip,[C]
[D]he just [Em]keep[D]s rollin' [G]alon[C]g[G]
[Bm]You and me, we sweat and strain
Bodies all achin' and
[F#]racked with pain
[B]Pump that barn, lift that [F#]bale
[Bm]Get a little [Bbdim]drunk an [F#]d you'll land
[Bm]in j[C]ail[Am][D][D]
[G]I get squeami[Em]sh, sick o[G]f t[C]rying
I'm tired [G]of [D]living, [Em]the fear of [A]dying
But [G]our [B]land [Em]river,
he [Am]just keeps [D]rollin' [C]on [D]and on[G].
