In constant sorrow all through my days
I am a 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 I was born and raised
For six long years, I've been in trouble
No pleasure here on earth I've 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
You can bury me in Sunny Valley
For many years there I may lay
Then, you may learning to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave
While I am sleeping in my grave

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you never will see no more
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on Gods golden shore
I'kk meet you on God's golden shore
