George Gershwin, DuBose Heyward
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 aroud
He come up, he come around
Ain`t that I mind workin`
Workin` means travelers
Journeyin` togheter
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
