Lyrics:

My man's gone now
Ain't no use a-listenin'
For his tired footsteps
Climbin' up the stairs
Ah

Old Man Sorrow
Come to keep me company
Whisperin' beside me
When I say my prayers
Ah, ah

Ain't that I mind workin'
Work and me is travelers
Journeyin' together
To the promised land
But Old Man Sorrow's
Marchin' all the way with me
Tellin' me I'm old now
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man
Since I lose my man

Old Man Sorrow's
Sittin' by the fireplace
Lyin' all night long
By me in the bed
Ah, ah


Old Man Sorrow's
Marchin' all the way with me
Tellin' me I'm old now
Sinc? I lose my man
Ah

Old Man Sorrow
Sittin' by the fireplac?
Lyin' all night long
By me in the bed

Tellin' me the same thing
Mornin', noon and evenin'
That I'm all alone now
Since my man is dead


Tellin' me the same thing
Mornin', noon and evenin'
That I'm all alone now
Since my man is dead
My man is dead
Ah, ooh
Since my man is dead
