My Man's Gone Now Songtext
von Harry Belafonte
My Man's Gone Now Songtext
My man′s gone now
Ain't no use a listenin′
For his tired footsteps
Climbin' up the stairs
Old man sorrow's
Come to keep me company
Whisperin′ beside me
When I say my prayers
When I say my prayers
He come around
He come up, he come around Ain′t that I mind workin'
Workin′ means travelers
Journeyin' together
To the promised land
But old man sorrow
Mountin′ all the way with me
Tell' me that I′m old now
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
Ain't no use a listenin′
For his tired footsteps
Climbin' up the stairs
Old man sorrow's
Come to keep me company
Whisperin′ beside me
When I say my prayers
When I say my prayers
He come around
He come up, he come around Ain′t that I mind workin'
Workin′ means travelers
Journeyin' together
To the promised land
But old man sorrow
Mountin′ all the way with me
Tell' me that I′m old now
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
