I am the man of constant sorrow I've seen trouble all my days I bid farewell to ol' Kentucky 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've 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 It's fair 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 some deep valley, For many years where I may lay. And you may learn to love another while I am sleeping in my grave. While he is sleeping 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 Gods golden shore He'll meet you on God's golden shore

  3. Actually, most Appalachian music is derived from European ballads from the middle ages. You're confusing mountain music with jazz and blues.

Clerk: You watch your language, young fella. This is a public market. If you want Dapper Dan, I can order it for you, have it in about two weeks. Everett: Well ain't this place a geographical oddity!
