[Verse 1]
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 probably raised
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
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 probably raised
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
