In constant sorrow all through his daysI am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I bid farewell to ol' Kentucky
The place where I was born and raisedThe place where he was born and raisedFor six long years I've been in trouble
no pleasure here on earth I've found
For in this world, I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me nowHe has no friends to help him nowIt's fair thee well, my old true lover
I never expected to see you again
For I'm bound to ride that Northern Railroad
perhaps I'll die upon this trainPerhaps he'll die upon this trainYou can bury me in Sunny Valley
For many years there I may lay
And you will learn to love another
while I am sleeping in my graveWhile he is sleeping in his graveMaybe 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 Gods golden shoreHe'll meet you on God's golden shore
