My Man's Gone Now Lyrics
My Man's Gone Now - Lena Horne
My man's gone now
Ain't no use a listening
For his tired footsteps
Climbing up the stairs
Old man sorrow's
Come to keep me company
Whispering beside me
When I say my prayers
Ain't that I mind working
Working me is travelers
Travelers together
To the promised land
But old man sorrow
Mounting all the way with me
Telling me that I'm old now
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
Old man sorrow's sitting by the fireside
Lying 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
Ah since my man is dead
