Lyrics for Song: Moanin' the Blues
Lyrics for Album: The Best of the Early Years [Music Mill] [2006]
(Hank Williams)
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
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 and all I do is moan
I've been lovin' 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 startin' to bow
And now I'm moanin', moanin' the blues.
--- Instrumental ---
If you want a good gal to stay around
You gotta 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 and all I do is moan
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 that front door
Then I'll stop moanin', moanin' the blues...
