In constant sorrow all through his days!
I am a man of constant sorrow,
I`ve seen trouble all my days.
I bid farewell to ole Kentucky,
The place where I was born and raised.
The place where he was born and rasied!
For 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 out.
He has no friends to help him out!
It`s fare 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 train.
Perhaps he`ll die upon this train!
You can bury me in Sunny Valley,
For many years, there 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
