I am a man of conscience, I have seen [N] true below my day.
I bid farewell to old Kentucky, the place where I [G] was born and raised.
[N] For six long years I've been in trouble, there's no pleasure here on earth I find.
Far in this world, Rambo, I have no friends [F] to help me now.
[N] This farewell of my own true love here, I never expect to see you no more.
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad, perhaps I'll die upon the train.
You may bury me in some deep valley, for many years there I may lay.
Then you can learn to love another, while I am sleeping in my grave.
Maybe your friends think I'm a stranger, my face you never will see no more.
Spirit, there is one promise that I'll give you, I'll meet you on God's golden shore.
