(In constant sorrow through his days)

I am a man of constant sorrow 
I've seen trouble all my day. 
I bid farewell to old Kentucky 
The place where I was born and raised. 
(The place where he was born and raised)

For six long years I've been in trouble 
No pleasures here on earth I found 
For in this world I'm bound to ramble 
I have no friends to help me now. 

[chorus] He has no friends to help him now 

It's fare thee well my old lover 
I never expect to see you again 
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad 
Perhaps I'll die upon this train. 

[chorus] Perhaps he'll die upon this train. 

You can bury me in some deep valley 
For many years where I may lay 
Then you may learn to love another 
While I am sleeping in my grave. 

[chorus] While he is sleeping in his grave. 

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger 
My face you'll never see no more. 
But there is one promise that is given 
I'll meet you on God's golden shore. 

[chorus] He'll meet you on God's golden shore.

Skeewiff - Man Of Constant Sorrow

The Meltdown. It’s a bold, brassy, twangy steam train of bumping backbeats and swinging shuffles. Then there’s that voice. Sweet as honey. The voice is soul, but it’s country too and something else indefinable; like you heard it before but don’t know where… Introducing Better Days, The Meltdown’s first release on HopeStreet Recordings.

There’s a fair chance you haven’t heard that voice before, because for the last few years Simon Burke has been flying small planes out of small airfields in the dusty backcountry and taking refuge from the hustle and grind of the music business to raise a young family. The time off has been fruitful. A lifetime of writing and experience is condensed into a golden set of songs and a killer new band, The Meltdown, which Simon formed in collaboration with saxophonist and arranger Lachlan McLean. Great vibe, great players, great sound, but it’s the songs that are king here.

There are a lot of soul revival bands around, but the Meltdown’s angle is different  – Simon and Lachlan are both pretty country and The Meltdown has more than a bit of that Ray Charles country via gospel thing, and a taste of dirty blues in it too. Echoes of towns like Euroa and Avenel, where the boys blew in from, or just artistic license? Either way, if there’s one thing that soul and country can both do for you, it’s songs about heartbreak, so here’s some rippers. Ladies and gentlemen, let us introduce to you the inimitable voice and songwriting of Mr Simon Burke. And yes, in advance, you’re welcome.

MONEY is the root of all evil they say. Well, who has not made the experience with the negative powers of money? We all need it, of course, but it too often determines your status, your value in society or how far you can come to reach your goals. But money alone doesn´t make you a good person or a well-received citizen of society. It can´t buy you real friends, but if you have a lot of money there will surely be numerous folks hanging around you acting as if they were your friends. 

Sadly most aspects in life circulate around money, but a positive, healthy and happy life is what really makes you rich.
