Steve Winwood - Man of Constant Sorrow lyrics

rate me

(In constant sorrow all through his days)

I am the man of constant sorrow

I've seen trouble all my days

I bid farewell to ol' Kentucky

The place where I was 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 find

For in this world I'm bound to ramble

I have no friends to help me out

(He has no friends to help him out)

Kids fare the well

My old true lover I never expect to see you again

For Im bound to ride that Northen Railroad

perhaps I'll die upon that train.

(Perhaps he'll die upon this train)

You can bury me in Sunny Valley

For many years where I may lay

Then you may learn to love another

while I am sleeping in my grave.

(While he is sleeping in his grave)

Maybe your friends think im 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

(He'll meet you on God's golden shore)
