Ralph Stanley I'm A Man Of Constant Sorrow
I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I bid farewell to ol' Kentucky
The state where I was born and raised.
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 now.
It's fair 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
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 Gods golden shore
