about
Inspired by the film and covered forthwith, Man Of Constant Sorrow has proved to be our most popular re-vision to date.
Even Mrs Wiff said "You better not fiddle about too much with that one... you'll get lynched!" So no fiddling.. Just a minor digital tickle :D

lyrics
(In constant sorrow through his days)
I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my day.
I bid farewell to old 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 pleasures here on earth I found
For in this world I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now.
[chorus] He has no friends to help him now
It's fare thee well my old lover
I never expect to see you again
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon this train.
[chorus] Perhaps he'll die upon this train.
You can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I may lay
Then you may learn to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave.
[chorus] While he is sleeping in his grave.
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you'll never see no more.
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore.
[chorus] He'll meet you on God's golden shore.

Almost impossible to pick a favourite from this bunch, they're all so cool. For now, I'm singling out the Kinks one because it's such an original song choice but ask me tomorrow and it'll be a different one! themichaelmoran
Just what the doctor ordered: three winsome, toe-tapping tracks that combine top-notch funk breaks, slinky pianos, and sultry soul vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 31, 2019
