Moanin' The Blues

(albüm: There's A Little Bit Of Hank In Me - 1980)

When my baby moved out and the blues moved in there wasn't nothing I could do
But mosey around with my head in my hands oh Lord what am I coming to
I just keep moaning moaning the blues
I wrote a nice long letter saying mama please come home
Your daddy is lonesome and all I do is moan
I've been loving that gal for so doggone long I can't afford to lose her now
I thought I was right but I must have been wrong cause my head is starting to bow
And now I'm moaning moaning the blues

If you want a good gal to stay around you got to treat her nice and kind
If you do her wrong she'll leave this town and you'll almost lose your mind
Then you'll be moaning moaning the blues
Oh baby baby baby honey baby please come home
Your daddy is lonesome and all I do is moan
I promise you baby that I'll be good and I'll never be bad no more
Sitting here waiting for you right now to walk through that front door
Then I'll stop moaning moaning the blues then I'll stop moaning moaning the blues
