I'm A Man Of Constant Sorrow

Lyrics

I am a man of constant sorrow
 I've seen trouble all my days
 I bid farewell to old Kentucky
 The place where I was born and raised
 (The place where he was born and raised)
 For six long years I've been in trouble
 No pleasure here on Earth I found
 For in this world I'm bound to ramble
 I have no friends to help me now
 (He has no friends to help him now)
 It's fare-thee-well my old true lover
 I never expect to see you again
 For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad
 Perhaps I'll die upon this train
 (Perhaps he'll die upon this train)
 You can bury me in some deep valley
 For many years where I may lay
 And you may learn to love another
 While I am sleeping in my grave
 (While he is sleeping in his grave)
 Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
 My face you never will see no more
 But there is one promise that is given
 I'll meet you on God's golden shore
 (He'll meet you on God's golden shore)
