LYRICS 
 
I am a man of constant sorrow,  
I’ve seen trouble all my days. 
I bid farewell to old Kentucky, 
The place where I was born and raised.  
 
For six long years I've been in trouble,  
No pleasures here on earth I found  
For in this world I'm bound to ramble,  
I have no friends to help me now  
 
It's fare thee well my old lover  
I never expect to see you again  
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad,  
Perhaps I'll die upon this train 
 
You can bury me in some deep valley,  
For many years where I may lay  
Then you may learn to love another,  
While I am sleeping in my grave 
 
 
 
 
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger  
My face, you'll never see no more  
But there is one promise that is given  
I'll meet you on God's golden shore
