I fell in love one summer and it led me to believe
There must be someone for everyone and losers such as me
.A dark-haired girl surveyed me
Her brown eyes scanned my soul
I melted like a glacier feeling ill at ease and hollow
Her everlasting gazes said all I longed to know
I knew I need not always be this man of constant sorrows
A man of constant sorrows
A man of constant sorrows. Sorrows, sorrows
I'm gonna tell you all about my blues tomorrow
I had so much to tell her, my loving to declare
But I couldn't even say my name
Or string two words together
She said "What's your trouble, man child
Come on and take my hand
I need you for someone to love
Someone who understands."
Well, I didn't need persuading. I'd had my fill of woes
I didn't want to always be this man of constant sorrows
A man of constant sorrows
A man of constant sorrows, sorrows, sorrows
I'm gonna tell you all about my blues tomorrow
A man of constant sorrows. A man of constant sorrows
A man of constant sorrows
I'm gonna tell you all about my blues tomorrow
I'm gonna tell you all about my blues tomorrow
I'm gonna tell you all tomorrow
