Ol' Man River

Ol' man river, that ol' man river
老人河，那老人河
He must know something,but he don't say nothing
他一定知道什麼，可他沉默不言
That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
那條老人河，他只顧向前獨自奔流
He don't plant 'taters, he don't plant cotton'
他不種土豆，他不種棉花
Cause them that plants,them is soon forgotten
因為那莊稼，不久就被遺忘
And ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along'
而那老人河，他只顧獨自流淌
Cause you and me, we sweat and strain
你和我，我們揮汗如雨
Body all achin' and wracked with pain
遍體鱗傷，被痛苦保圍
Tote that barge, lift that bale
拉起那條駁船，背上一包貨物
Get a little drunk,and you land in jail
可稍稍酒醉，你就進了監獄
But I get weary,and sick of tryin'
我心力交瘁，厭倦了努力
'cause I'm tired of livin',
因為我無力生存
but I am scared of dying
卻又懼怕死亡
That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
而那老人河，他只顧獨自流淌
You and me, we sweat and strain
你和我，我們揮汗如雨
Body all achin' and wracked with pain
遍體鱗傷，被痛苦保圍
Tote that barge, lift that bale
拉上那條駁船，背起一包貨物
Get a little drunk,and you land in jail
稍稍酒醉，你就進了監獄
But I get weary,and sick of tryin'
我心力交瘁，厭倦了努力
Cause I' m tired of livin',but I'm scared of dyin'
因為我活得疲憊不堪，但我又懼怕死亡
That ol' man river, he just keeps rollin' along
而那老人河，他只顧獨自流淌
