my man's gone now

Singer:london, julie

my man's gone now

ain't no use a-listenin'

for his tired footsteps climbin' up the stairs. ol' man sorrow

come to keep me company

whisperin' beside me when i say my prayers. ain't that i mind workin'

work an' me is travelers

journeyin' together to the promised land. ol man sorrow's marchin' all the way with me

tellin' me i'm old now

since i lose my man

since i lose my man

since i lose my man. ol' man sorrow

sittin' by the fireplace

lyin' all night long by me in my bed. tellin' me the same thing

mornin' noon and evenin'

that i'm all alone now

since my man is gone

since my man is gone.
