I am a man of constant sarrow,
Ive seen trouble all my days.
I bid farewell to old Kentucky,
the place where I was born and raised.
(The place where he was born and raised.)
Interlude
For six long years ive been in trouble,
no pleasure here on earth ive found.
for in this world im bound to ramble
i have no friends to help me now.
(He has no friends to help him now.)
Intgerlude
Its farethewell my golden lover
I never expect to see you again.
for im bound to ride that northarn railroad
perhaps ill die upon that train.
(Perhaps he'll die upon this train.)
Interlude
You can bury me in Swany valley
for many years where i will lay
then and you may learn to love another
while i am sleeping in my grave.
(While he is sleeping in his grave.
Interlude
Maybe your friends think im just a stranger
my face youll never see no more.
but there is one promise that is given
ill meet you on gods golden shore.
(He'll meet you on gods golden shore)
