In constant sorrow, all through my day I, I am a man of constant sorrow And I've seen trouble all my day And I, I bid farewell to old Kentucky The place where I was born and raised Oh yes, the place where I was born and raised 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 Oh yes, I'll meet you on God's golden shore
