One evening as the sun went down, and the jungle fire was burning,
Down the track came a hobo hiking, and he said boys I'm not turning, I'm headed for a land that's far away, beside the crystal fountain, So come with me we'll go and see, the big rock candy mountains. In the big rock candy mountains, there's a land that's fair and bright, Where the handouts grow on bushes, and you sleep out every night. Where the boxcars all are empty, and the sun shines every day, On the birds and bees and the cigarette trees, The lemonade springs where the bluebird sings, In the big rock candy mountains. In the big rock candy mountains, all the cops have wooden legs, And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth, and the hens lay soft boiled eggs. The farmers trees are full of fruit, and the barns are full of hay, Well I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow, Where the rain don't flow and the wind don't blow, In the big rock candy mountains. In the big rock candy mountains, you never change your socks, And the little streams of alcohol, come a tricklin' down the rocks. The brakemen have to tip their hats, and the railroad bulls are blind, There's a lake of stew and a whisky too, You can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe, In the big rock candy mountains. In the big rock candy mountains, the jails are made of tin, And you can walk right out again, as soon as you are in. There ain't no short handled shovels, no axes, saws, or picks. I'm a-going to stay where ya sleep all day, Where they hung the jerk who invented work In the big rock candy mountains. I'll see you all this comin' fall in the big rock candy mountains |

The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken And I hung my head & cried You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are gray You'll never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away I'll always love you & make you happy If you will only say the same But if you leave me to love another You'll regret it all someday |

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way And who shall wear the starry crown Good Lord, show me the way O sisters let's go down, Let's go down, come on down, O sisters let's go down, Down in the river to pray. As I went down in the river to pray Studying about that good old way And who shall wear the robe and crown Good Lord, show me the way O brothers let's go down, Let's go down, come on down, Come on brothers let's go down, Down in the river to pray. As I went down in the river to pray Studying about that good old way And who shall wear the starry crown Good Lord, show me the way O fathers let's go down, Let's go down, come on down, O fathers let's go down, Down in the river to pray. As I went down in the river to pray Studying about that good old way And who shall wear the robe and crown Good Lord, show me the way O mothers let's go down, Let's go down, don't you want to go down, Come on mothers let's go down, Down in the river to pray. As I went down in the river to pray Studying about that good old way And who shall wear the starry crown Good Lord, show me the way O sinners let's go down, Let's go down, come on down, O sinners let's go down, Down in the river to pray. As I went down in the river to pray Studying about that good old way And who shall wear the robe and crown Good Lord, show me the way - |

(In constant sorrow all through his days)
I am the 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) hhhhggggggggggg 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 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 (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 (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 (He'll meet you on God's golden shore) |

Hard time here and everywhere you go
Times is harder than ever been before And the people are driftin' from door to door Can't find no heaven, I don't care where they go Hear me tell you people, just before I go These hard times will kill you just dry long so Well, you hear me singin' my lonesome song These hard times can last us so very long If I ever get off this killin' floor I'll never get down this low no more No-no, no-no, I'll never get down this low no more And you say you had money, you better be sure 'Cause these hard times will drive you from door to door Sing this song and I ain't gonna sing no more Sing this song and I ain't gonna sing no more These hard times will drive you from door to door |

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 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 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 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 He'll meet you on God's golden shore |

Oh Death,
Whoa, death! Won't you spare me over 'til another year? Well, what is this, that I can't see? Both ice-cold hands taken hold of me Well, I am death none can excel I'll open the door to heaven or hell Oh, Death, well, someone would pray Could you wait to call me another day? The children prayed, the preacher preached Time and mercy is out of your reach I'll fix your feet 'til you can't walk I'll lock your jaw 'til you can't talk I'll close your eyes so you can't see This very hour, come and go with me Death, I come to take the soul Leave the body and leave it cold To drop the flesh off of the frame The earth and worms both have a claim Oh Death, Whoa, death! Won't you spare me over 'til another year? My mother came to my bed, Placed a cold towel upon my head My head is warm, my feet are cold Death is a' movin' upon my soul Oh death! How you're treatin' me You closed my eyes so I can't see Well, you're hurtin' my body, you make me cold You run my life right out of my soul Oh Death! Please consider my age Please don't take me at this stage My wealth is all at your command If you will move your icy hand Oh the young, the rich or poor All alike me, you know No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold Nothin' satisfies me but your soul Oh death! Whoa, death! Won't you spare me over to another year Won't you spare me over to another year Won't you spare me over to another year |
