My man’s gone nowAin’t no use a listenin’For his tired footstepsClimbin’ up the stairsOld man sorrow’sCome to keep me companyWhisperin’ beside meWhen I say my prayersWhen I say my prayersHe come aroudHe come up, he come aroundAin’t that I mind workin’Workin’ means travelersJourneyin’ togheterTo the promised landBut old man sorrowMountin’ all the way with meTell’ me that I’m old nowSince I lose my manSince I lose my manSince I lose my man
