I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble on my days
I bid farewell to old Kentucky
The place where I was born and raised
The place where I was born and raised
For six long years
I've seen in trouble
Little pleasures have I found
For in this world I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now
I have no friends to help me now
Well I'm a man, I'm a man
I'm a man of constant sorrow
I'm a man, I'm a man
I'm a man of no tomorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
It's time for goodbyes my old lover
I don't think I'll see you again
For I'm bound to ride that Southern Railroad perhaps I'll die on this train
Perhaps I'll die on this train
Well I'm a man, I'm a man
I'm a man of constant sorrow
I'm a man, I'm a man
I'm a man of no tomorrow
I've seen trouble on my days
You can just bury me in some deep valley
For many years I may lay
Then you may learn to love another
While I'm sleeping now cold in my grave
I'm sleeping cold in my grave
I'm sleeping cold in my grave
Well I'm a man, I'm a man
I'm a man of constant sorrow
I'm a man, I'm a man
I'm a man of no tomorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I've seen trouble all my days
I've seen trouble all my days
