"Man of Constant Sorrow"是由Bob Dylan在1964年創作的一首歌曲。以下是這首歌的歌詞:
Verse 1:
I'm a man of constant sorrow, I'm known by the name of John
I've been on my travels, I've been on my own
No friends, no sympathy, my sorrow is gone
I've traveled this world and the world above
But there's no relief for my lonely soul
Chorus:
I'm a man of constant sorrow, no help from my fellow men
Just heaven knows what I've been through
I've seen it all and I know where it's gone
So take your bitter pill, friend, it's a far cry from done
Verse 2:
There's no tomorrow for me, just another long day
Another bad night to make me say
"I don't want to go on anymore"
The devil in me he wants to play, but he don't know when to stop
So he lets me play my part, in a hopeless reel of dance
But if you hear my confession, there's mercy at hand
The morning star's too bright to touch
But my sins will rise when I sink into the ground
Chorus:
I'm a man of constant sorrow, no help from my fellow men
Just heaven knows what I've been through
I've seen it all and I know where it's gone
So take your bitter pill, friend, it's a far cry from done
Bridge:
When I look in the mirror and I see a stranger there
It doesn't matter what they say, they don't understand
It doesn't matter what they wear, they don't understand
I ain't what I was, and I ain't what I will be
I don't know where I am, but I ain't in hell yet
But it don't take much to see, it's just a matter of time
Chorus:
I'm a man of constant sorrow, no help from my fellow men
Just heaven knows what I've been through
I've seen it all and I know where it's gone
So take your bitter pill, friend, it's a far cry from done.
