Maid of Constant Sorrow

Adapted from the idea of the American folk song A Man of Constant Sorrow, Walker's Maid of Constant Sorrow has a very simple melody with a mournful message. That the soul is troubled and not at rest is brought forward in the lyrics "All through this world, I'm bound to ramble... perhaps I'll take the very next train" and "Perhaps I'll die upon this train." Part of The Morning Train collection.
