Description:
A familiar American folk song is A Man of Constant Sorrow. Adaptations exist for a maid of constant sorrow as well. This is a very simple melody, placed in the key of C major. The message is a mournful one. The soul is troubled, and not at rest. 'All through this world, I'm bound to ramble...perhaps I'll take the very next train. ' Then, later, 'perhaps I'll die upon this train. ' Some comfort is taken with the lines 'I know we'll meet on God's Golden Shore. ' Approachable vocal writing with a gently flowing piano accompaniment. Duration: 4:15
