Sarah Vaughan - My Man’s Gone Now lyrics
[Sarah Vaughan - My Man’s Gone Now lyrics]
My man's gone now, ain't no use a-listening
For his tired footsteps climbing
Up the stairs oh, oh
Old man sorrow's come to keep me company
Whispering beside me when I say my prayers
Oh, oh
Ain't that I mind working
Work and me is travellers
Journeying together to the promised land
But ol' 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
Ol' man sorrow, sitting by the fireplace
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
Oh, since my man is dead
For his tired footsteps climbing
Up the stairs oh, oh
Old man sorrow's come to keep me company
Whispering beside me when I say my prayers
Oh, oh
Ain't that I mind working
Work and me is travellers
Journeying together to the promised land
But ol' 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
Ol' man sorrow, sitting by the fireplace
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
Oh, since my man is dead
