I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow Songtext
von Blitzen Trapper

I am a man of constant sorrow
I′ve seen trouble all my days
So I bid farewell, to you, my old Kentucky
A place where I was born and raised, yeah
(A place where he was born and raised)

For six long years, oh, I've been in trouble
No pleasures here on earth I′ve found
For in this world, yeah, I'm bound to ramble
For I have no friends to help me now
(He has no friends, to help him now)

So it's fare thee well, to you 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, yeah
(Perhaps he'll die upon this train)


And you can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I may lay
Then you may learn, oh, to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave

Maybe your friends, they think that I′m just a stranger
My face you'll never will see again
But there is one promise that is given
I′ll meet you on God's golden shore, yeah
(He′ll meet you on God's golden shore)

In constant sorrow all my days
(In constant sorrow all his days)
In constant sorrow all my days
(In constant sorrow all his days)
In constant sorrow all my days
(In constant sorrow all his days)

In constant sorrow all his days
In constant sorrow all his days
In constant sorrow all his days
