Verse Number One:
I...... am a man........ of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble...... all a'my day.
I ........bid farewell........ to old Kentucky
The place where I .......was born and raised.
(The place where he was born and raised)
Verse Number Two:
For .......six long years....... I've been in trouble
No pleasures here....... on earth I found
For........ in this world...... I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends.... to help me now.
( He has no friends to help him now )
Verse Number Three:
It's...a'fare thee well .....my old true lover
I.... never expect... to see you again
For.......I'm bound to ride...... that northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die....... upon this train. Smokey River Boys - Man Of Constant Sorrow - http://motolyrics.com/smokey-river-boys/man-of-constant-sorrow-lyrics.html

Verse Number Four:
You.... can bury me..... in some deep valley
For many years...... where I may lay
Then...... you may learn..... to love another
While I am sleeping...... in my grave.

Verse Number Five:
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.
(He'll meet you on God's golden shore.)
