Soul Of Constant Sorrow

(Emory Gordy, Jr.,/Patty Loveless) I am a soul of constant sorrow I've seen trouble all my days I bid farewell to east Kentucky The place where I was born and raised For many a year I have struggled No pleasure here on Earth I've found All through this world I'm bound to wander There is no one to help me now You can bury me in some deep valley For many a year in peace I'll lay Then you may learn to love another While I am sleeping in my grave It's fare-you-well my one true lover I never 'spect to see you again But there's one promise that is given I'll meet you in God's golden land
