I am a man of constant sorrow |
|
I've seen trouble all my days |
|
I'll say goodbye to Colorado |
|
Where I was born and prob'ly raised |
|
Your mother says, I am a stranger |
|
My face you'll never see no more |
|
But there's one promise, darling |
|
I'll see you on God's golden shore |
|
Through this open world I'm about to ramble |
|
Through ice, snow, sleet and rain |
|
I am about to rob the mornin' railroad |
|
Perhaps I'll die on that train |
|
I'm goin' back to Colorado |
|
Place that I started from |
|
If I'd knowed how bad you'd treat me |
|
Honey, I never would have come |
