Lyrics
I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen troubles all my day
I'm goin' back to California
Place where I was partly raised
All through this world
I'm bound to ramble
Through storm and wind
Through sleet and rain
I'm bound to ride
That northern railroad
Perhaps I'll take
The very next train
Your friends, they say (your friends, they say)
I am a stranger
You'll never see (never see)
My face no more (face no more)
There is just one (just one)
Promise that's given (promise)
We'll sail on God's golden shore
I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen troubles all my day
I'm goin' back to California
Place where I was partly raised
Writer(s): Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey
