My Man's Gone Now

Lyrics

My man's gone now
 Ain't no use a-listening
 For his tired footsteps
 Climbin' up the stairs
 ♪
 Aah
 ♪
 Aah
 ♪
 Old Man Sorrow's
 Come to keep me company
 Whispering beside me
 When I say my prayers
 Aah
 Aah
 ♪
 Ain't that I mind workin'
 Work and me is travellers
 Journeying together
 To the Promised Land
 
 But Old Man Sorrow's
 Marching all the way with me
 Telling me I'm old now
 Since I lose my man
 ♪
 Since I lose my man
 ♪
 Old Man Sorrow's
 Sittin' by the fireplace
 Lyin' all night long
 By me in the bed
 Telling me the same thing
 Morning, noon and evening
 That I'm all alone now
 ♪
 Since my man is dead
 Aah
 Since my man is dead
 ♪
 Ooh
 Ooh
 ♪
 Thank you very much
