Here it is, one of our late, later numbers
Right now we wanna say thanks to all you folks for
Findin' this record this is one of the top tens in the country right now
We awful proud of it
We been eatin' off of it for the last few months
Fellas, "Moanin' The Blues"
ย
When my baby moved out and the blues moved in
There wasn't nothin' I could do
But mosey around with my head in my hands
Lord what am I comin' to?
I just keep moanin', moanin' the blues
I wrote a nice, long letter
Sayin', mama please come home
Your daddy is lonesome
All I do is moan
I been lovin' that gal for so dog-gone long
I can't afford to lose her now
Well, I thought I was right but I must've been wrong
'Cause my head is startin' to bow
And now I'm moanin', moanin' the blues
ย
If you want yo' good gal to stay around
You better 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 moanin', moanin' the blues
Oh, baby, baby, baby
Honey baby, please come home
Your daddy is lonesome, all I do is moan
Well, I promise you baby that I'll be good
And I'll never be bad no more
I'm sittin' here waitin' for you right now
To walk through my front door
Then I'll stop moanin', moanin' the blues
Moanin' the blues
Right now if you listen to cousin Louis Buck
When it comes to mo' bakin'
You don't be moanin' no blue
You'll be singin' a happy song you'd be saying, "Good morning, good morning!"
Oh my goodness, this boy ready to go to bed
