My Man’s Gone Now

George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin, DuBose Heyward, Dorothy 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

Ain't that I mind workin'
Work n' me is travelers
Journeyin' together
To the Promised Land

But old man sorrow
Marchin' all the way with me
Tellin' me I'm old now
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man

Old 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 gone
Since my man is dead
