Mel Mcdaniel - Old Man River Lyrics

Cool breeze on the river ripples to the shore
Wash away my troubles to the sea forever more
Wind and willows whisper sadness in the sound
Tell a tale of my once happy world that's fallen down
Old man I might be goin' where you're bound

Old man river I've come to talk again
Yes I know you're tired cause your journey never ends
She's just like you she's movin' all the time
And I think she's movin' me out of her mind

I wanna travel with you in your deep and emerald soul
That's the only way to make it peaceful like before
We used to touch at midnight oh but now I feel she's gone
Even though she's lying next to me I feel alone
Old man it looks like time to travel on

Old man river I've come to talk again...
Old man river I've come to talk again...
Oh I think she's movin' me out of her mind
Oh I think she's movin' me out of her mind
