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
Whisperin' beside me
When I say my prayers
Ain't that I mind working
Workin' means travelers
Journeying togheter
To the promised land
But old man sorrow
Mounting all the way with me
Tell me that I'm old now
Since I lose my man
Since I lose man
Old man sorrow's
Sitting by the fireside
Lying all night long
By me in the bed
Since my man is dead
Since my man is dead
Since my man
Since my man is dead
