Man Of Constant Sorrows Lyrics - Singles - Soggy Bottom Boys

I am a man of constant sorrow 

I've seen trouble all my days 

I bid farewell to old Kentucky 

The place where I 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've 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 that train) 

You can bury me in some green 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)
