In constant sorrow all through his day.

I am the man of constant sorrow.

I've seen trouble all my day.

He's seen trouble all through his day.

For six long he hid, he's up and around then.

My treasure here on earth I found.

One evening as the sun went down and the jungle fire was burning, on a track came a hovo hiking.

And he said, boys, I'm not yearningning I'm headed for a land that's far away

side the crystal fountain oh come with me we'll go and see the big rock candy mountain in the big

rock candy mountain all the cops have wooden legs all the bulldogs have rubber teeth, and the hens lay soft boiled eggs.

Farmers, trees are full of fruit, and the barns are full of hay.

I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow, where the rain don't fall, the wind don't blow,

and the big rock candy mountain.

In the big rock candy mountain, you never change your socks, and the little

streams of alcohol come a trickling down the rocks. There ain't no short handle shovels,

no axes, farms, or picks. I'm going to stay where they sleep all day, where they hung the jerk

who invented work on the big rock candy mountain.

The big rock candy mountain.

The jails are made of tin, and you can walk right out again as soon as you are in.

Great men have to tip their hats and the railroad bowls aren't blind.

There's a lake with stew and whiskey too.

You can paddle all around it in a big canoe in the big rock-candy mountain.
