This another song from our first album, it's entitled, 'The Moanin' News'
There once was a man who did love to sing the blues
He'd two pair of pants and just one pair of shoes
But he could moan, that lowdown dirty blues
People come a-runnin' from all around
Just to hear what he was puttin' down
And that is why they call him
The Moanin' News
The Moanin' News
Late at night, when he'd start to make his move
He'd iron his pants, and he'd shine those pair of shoes
But he could moan that gut bucket, down home blues
Down home blues
People come a-running from all around town
Just to hear what he was putting down
That is why they call him
The Moanin' News
The Moanin' News
He'd start the moaning, hmm, hmm
He'd start moaning and moaning and moaning, hmm, hmm
People come a-runnin' from far away
Just to hear what the man had to say
That is why they call him
The Moanin' News
The Moanin' News
ย
Now later on, when he'd finally found success
He'd come back home, and he'd try to get some rest
But he could moan, that funky urban blues
I say now and again, turn on your TV
You will never guess who you might see
The man they used to call, 'The Moanin' News'
The Moanin' News
The Moanin' News
The Moanin' News
And he used to moan, hmm
And he used to moan, hmm, oh lord
