"Man of Abiding Sorrow" (also known equally "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow") is a traditional American folk vocal first published by Dick Burnett, a partially blind fiddler from Kentucky. The song was originally titled "Goodbye Song" in a songbook by Burnett dated to around 1913. A version recorded by Emry Arthur in 1928 gave the vocal its current titles.

There are several versions of the song that differ in their lyrics and melodies. The song was popularized past The Stanley Brothers, who recorded the song in the 1950s; many other singers recorded versions in the 1960s, most notably by Bob Dylan. Variations of the song have also been recorded under the titles of "Girl of Constant Sorrow" past Joan Baez, "Maid of Constant Sorrow" past Judy Collins, and "Sorrow" by Peter, Paul and Mary. Information technology was released as a single by Ginger Baker'southward Air Force with vocals by Denny Laine.

Public involvement in the song was renewed subsequently the release of the 2000 motion-picture show O Brother, Where Art M?, where it plays a key office in the plot, earning the three delinquent protagonists public recognition as the Soggy Lesser Boys. The song, with atomic number 82 vocal by Dan Tyminski, was featured on the film's highly successful, multiple-platinum-selling soundtrack. That recording won a Grammy for Best Country Collaboration at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards in 2002.[i]

Origin [edit]

The song was outset published in 1913 with the championship "Farewell Vocal" in a six-song songbook past Dick Burnett, titled Songs Sung by R. D. Burnett—The Blind Man—Monticello, Kentucky.[2] There exists some incertitude as to whether Dick Burnett is the original writer. In an interview he gave toward the finish of his life, he was asked almost the vocal:

Charles Wolfe: "What about this "Cheerio Song" – 'I am a man of constant sorrow' – did you write it?" Richard Burnett: "No, I call back I got the ballad from somebody – I dunno. Information technology may be my song ..."[3]

Whether or not Burnett was the original writer, his work on the song can be dated to virtually 1913. The lyrics from the 2nd poesy—'Oh, six long yr I've been bullheaded, friends'—would hold true with the year he was blinded, 1907. Burnett may accept tailored an already existing vocal to fit his blindness, and some claimed that he derived information technology from "The White Rose" and "Down in the Tennessee Valley" circa 1907.[four] Burnett as well said he thought he based the melody on an old Baptist hymn he remembered as "Wandering Male child".[2] However, according to hymnologist John Garst, no song with this or a similar title had a melody that tin be identified with "Constant Sorrow".[5] Garst all the same noted that parts of the lyrics advise a possible antecedent hymn, and that the term 'man of sorrows' is religious in nature and appears in Isaiah 53:3.[v] [6] The vocal has some similarities to the hymn "Poor Pilgrim," also known as "I Am a Poor Pilgrim of Sorrow," which George Pullen Jackson speculated to have been derived from a folk song of English origin titled "The Green Mossy Banks of the Lea."[7]

Emry Arthur, a friend of Burnett, released a recording of the song in 1928, and also claimed to have written it.[5] Arthur titled his recording "I Am a Human being of Constant Sorrow", the proper noun that the vocal came to be more popularly known. The lyrics of Burnett and Arthur are very like with minor variations. Although Burnett's version was recorded earlier in 1927, Columbia Records failed to release Burnett's recording;[two] Arthur's single was thus the earliest recording of the vocal to be released, and the tune and lyrics of Arthur's version became the source from which most later versions were ultimately derived.[5]

A number of similar songs were plant in Kentucky and Virginia in the early 20th century. English folk song collector Cecil Abrupt collected 4 versions of the song in 1917–1918 equally "In Old Virginny", which were published in 1932 in English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians.[2] The lyrics were unlike in details from Burnett'due south but similar in tone. In a version from 1918 by Mrs Frances Richards, who probably learned information technology from her father, the first verse is about identical to Burnett's & Arthur'south lyrics, with minor changes like Virginia substituting for Kentucky.[iv] [viii] The vocal is idea to be related to several songs such equally "Due east Virginia Blues".[8] Norman Lee Vass of Virginia claimed his blood brother Mat wrote the vocal in the 1890s, and the Virginia versions of the song prove some human relationship to Vass's version, even though his melody and most of his verses are unique. It is idea that this variant was influenced past "Come up All Yous Fair and Tender Ladies"/"The Little Sparrow".[4] [5]

An older version described by Almeda Riddle was dated to effectually 1850, but with texts that differ substantially after the first line.[v] John Garst traced elements of the song dorsum to the hymns of the early 1800s, suggesting similarity in its tune to "Tender-Hearted Christians" and "Judgment Hymn", and similarity in its lyrics to "Christ Suffering", which included the lines "He was a human of constant sorrow / He went a mourner all his days."[9]

On October xiii, 2009, on the Diane Rehm Show, Ralph Stanley of the Stanley Brothers, whose autobiography is titled Man of Constant Sorrow,[10] discussed the song, its origin, and his attempt to revive it:[xi]

"Man of Abiding Sorrow" is probably two or three hundred years quondam. But the first time I heard it when I was y'know, like a small boy, my daddy – my father – he had some of the words to it, and I heard him sing it, and we – my brother and me – we put a few more words to it, and brought it back in existence. I guess if it hadn't been for that it'd have been gone forever. I'g proud to exist the ane that brought that song back, considering I recall information technology's wonderful.

Lyrical variations [edit]

Many later singers take put new and varied lyrics to the song. Most versions have the singer riding a train fleeing problem, regretting not seeing his old dear, and contemplating his futurity death, with the promise that he volition meet his friends or lover again on the cute or gilt shore.[4] Most variants start with similar lines in the start verse as the 1913 Burnett'south version, some with variations such as gender and home land, along with some other small-scale changes:[12]

I am a man of abiding sorrow,
I've seen trouble all of my days;
I'll bid good day to onetime Kentucky,
The place where I was built-in and raised.

The 1928 recording by Emry Arthur is largely consistent with Burnett's lyrics, with only modest differences.[12] However, the reference to incomprehension in the 2d poetry of Burnett'due south lyrics, "six long twelvemonth I've been blind", had been inverse to "six long years I've been in problem", a change as well institute in other subsequently versions that contain the verse.[thirteen]

In around 1936, Sarah Ogan Gunning rewrote the traditional "Homo" into a more personal "Girl". Gunning remembered the melody from a 78-rpm hillbilly record (Emry Arthur, 1928) she had heard some years before in the mountains, but the lyrics she wrote were considerably different from the original after the kickoff poesy.[12] [14] The change of gender is likewise found in Joan Baez'south "Girl of Abiding Sorrow" and another variant of the song similar to Baez's, Judy Collins's title song from her anthology A Maid of Constant Sorrow.[15]

In 1950, The Stanley Brothers recorded a version of the vocal they had learnt from their male parent.[xiii] [fifteen] The Stanley Brothers' version contains some modifications to the lyrics, with an entire verse of Burnett's version removed, the last line is also different and 'parents' of the second verse have turned into 'friends.'[12] The performances of the song by the Stanley Brothers and Mike Seeger contributed to the vocal's popularity in the urban folksong circles during the American folk music revival of the 50s and 60s.[14]

Bob Dylan recorded his version in 1961, which is a rewrite based on versions performed by other folk singers such equally Joan Baez and Mike Seeger.[16] [17] A verse from the Stanleys' version was removed, and other verses were significantly rearranged and rewritten. Dylan also added personal elements, changing 'friends' to 'mother' in the line 'Your mother says that I'yard a stranger' in reference to his then girlfriend Suze Rotolo's mother.[eighteen] In Dylan'south version, Kentucky was inverse to Colorado;[13] this modify of the country of origin is common,[4] for example, Kentucky is changed to California in "Girl of Abiding Sorrow" by Joan Baez and "Maid of Constant Sorrow" by Judy Collins.

Bated from the lyrics, there are also significant variations in the melody of the song in many of these versions.[15]
