I AM A MAN OF CONSTANT SORROW

SOGGY BOTTOM BOYS

Extrait du film « O Brother, Where Art Thou?», Joel Coen (2000)

Lyrics and music:Richard Burnett

Key:

I am a man of constant sorrow

I've seen trouble all my days

I'll bid fare well to old Ken tucky

The place where I was born and raised

(The place where he was born and raised)

For six long years I've been in trouble

No pleasure here on earth I found

For in this world I'm bound to ramble

I have no friends to help me down

(He has no friends to help him down)

It's 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

(Perhaps he'll die upon this train)

You can bury me in sunny valley

For many years where I may lay

And you may learn to love another

While I am sleepin'in my grave

(While he is sleepin'in his grave)

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger

My face you never will 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)
