man of constant sorrow
Hard luck and banners
are always at my door
I'm heading back to the Pacific Shore
The place where I was born
And the place where I did
partly grow
I'm a rambler and ramblin' is my fate
And ramblin' is the only life
I know
Through the rain, the sleet,
an d the snow
I'm bound to be out on that interstate
Headed on to the next
tall man's gate
Cause ramblin' is a rambler's state
Your friends say that I'm strange
But now I'm never gonna see your face
But I'll see you at the other place
I promise that I will
See you on the other range
I'm a rambler, oh darlin',
can't you tell
And that is why that I keep
movin' on
Don't bother cryin' when
you see I'm gone
I breathe the air that my
lungs once held
But I am hoping you'll do very well
An d now my love I'm
saying fare thee well
Your ma says that I'm strange
And now you're never
gonna see my face
But you'll see me in the
other place
Please promise that you will
See me on the other range
Your ma says that I'm strange
And now you're never gonna see my hide
But you'll see me on the
other side
Please promise that you will
See me on the other range
I'm a man of constant sorrow
Heart left to bad news
The bomb was at my door
I'm headed back
to the Pacific shore
The place where I was born
And the place where I did partly
grow
The place where I did partly grow
