\begin{verse}
For six long years, I've been in trouble
No pleasure here, on earth, I've found
For in this world, I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now

He has no friends to help him now
\end{chorus}

It's fair thee well, my old true lover
I never expect to see you again
For I'm bound to ride that Northern Railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon this train
\end{verse}

Perhaps he'll die upon this train
\end{chorus}
\begin{verse}
You can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I may lay
And you may learn to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave
\end{verse}

While he is sleeping in his grave
\end{chorus}
\begin{verse}
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you never will see no more
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore
\end{verse}
\begin{chorus}
He'll meet you on God's golden shore
\end{chorus}
