My Man's Gone Now
My man's gone now
Ain't no use a listenin'
For his tired footsteps
Climbin' up the stairs
Ahhh, ahhh
Old man sorrows
Come to keep me company
Whisperin' beside me
When I say my prayers
Ahhh, ahhh
Ain't that I mind workin'
Work and I are travelers
Journeyin' together
To the promised land
But old man sorrows
Marchin' all the way with me
Tellin' me I'm old now
Since I lost my man
Since I lost my man
Old man sorrows
Sittin' by the fireplace
Lyin' all night long
By me in the bed
Tellin' me the same thing
Mornin', noon and evening
That I'm all alone now
Since my man is dead
Ahhhhh
Since my man is dead
Ahhhhh ahhh
Ain't no use a listenin'
For his tired footsteps
Climbin' up the stairs
Ahhh, ahhh
Old man sorrows
Come to keep me company
Whisperin' beside me
When I say my prayers
Ahhh, ahhh
Ain't that I mind workin'
Work and I are travelers
Journeyin' together
To the promised land
But old man sorrows
Marchin' all the way with me
Tellin' me I'm old now
Since I lost my man
Since I lost my man
Old man sorrows
Sittin' by the fireplace
Lyin' all night long
By me in the bed
Tellin' me the same thing
Mornin', noon and evening
That I'm all alone now
Since my man is dead
Ahhhhh
Since my man is dead
Ahhhhh ahhh
