Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know what to say
And it's honestly
Because I don't how to take in your presence
You can be a lot to be around
You can be a lot to see
But I will admit to one thing soon
And it's how I think of you
You're breathtaking
My heartstrings ring for you
You're breathtaking my sweet
I love being around you
Now what
I don't know what to talk about
In order to make the song better
I suppose I can start listing compliments
But you might not appreciate it
I don't know
I think you would
Yeah you would
You're beautiful
You're really funny
And honestly you're wonderful to be around
You're kind
Thoughtful
Pleasant
And most of all
You're breathtaking my dear
I loved your ever presence
You're breathtaking my dear
I love being in your presence
You're breathtaking my dear
I loved your ever presence
You're breathtaking my dear
I love being in your presence
What if I'm not enough for you
What if I'm not enough for you
What if I'm not enough for you
What if I'm not enough for you
What if I'm not enough for you
I'm not enough am I
I wish I knew
If I was
I hope I'm enough
The song "I Am One" by Pig & Dan feat Rachel Lyn is a contemporary rendition of the traditional folk song "Man of Constant Sorrow". The lyrics talk about a man who has seen a lot of hardship and has been in trouble for six long years. He bids farewell to old Kentucky, the place where he was born and raised, and is now bound to ramble without any friends to help him. The song talks about the man's loneliness, his separation from his old lover, and his fear of dying on the train he is bound to ride. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the man promising to meet his lover on God's golden shore.
The lyrics of the song reflect the common themes found in traditional American folk music, such as sorrow, hardship, and loneliness. The song was made popular by the movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou?", in which it was performed by the Soggy Bottom Boys. The song has since been covered by several artists, including Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and the Stanley Brothers. Pig & Dan feat Rachel Lyn's version of the song adds a modern electronic twist to its traditional folk roots.
Line by Line Meaning
I am a man of constant sorrow
I have been experiencing constant pain and suffering
I've seen trouble all my day
I have faced difficulties throughout my life
I bid farewell to old Kentucky
I am saying goodbye to the place of my birth and upbringing
The place where I was born and raised
The place where my roots lie and where I grew up
For six long years I've been in trouble
For a significant amount of time, I have been facing problems
No pleasures here on earth I found
I have not been able to find happiness or enjoyment in life
For in this world I'm bound to ramble
I am destined to wander aimlessly in this world
I have no friends to help me now
I am devoid of any companions that can assist me at this point in time
It's fare thee well my old lover
I bid a final goodbye to my former partner
I never expect to see you again
I don't anticipate ever crossing paths with you again
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad
I am destined to embark on a journey towards the Northern territories
Perhaps I'll die upon this train
I might pass away while travelling on this train
You can bury me in some deep valley
If I pass away, you can lay me to rest in a secluded spot
For many years where I may lay
I will be resting in that spot for an extended period
Then you may learn to love another
After I'm gone, you might find love with someone else
While I am sleeping in my grave
While I am at eternal rest in my final resting place
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
Your companions may consider me a mere outsider
My face, you'll never see no more
You won't see my visage ever again
But there is one promise that is given
However, there is one assurance that I can provide
I'll meet you on God's golden shore
I will reunite with you in the afterlife, in heaven's shores
