2x

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 prob'ly raised

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

2x

Through this open world I'm about to ramble,

dry snow, sleet and rain

I am about to rob the mornin' railroad,

perhaps I'll die on that train

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
