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 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
|
[ steel - guitar ]
|
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 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
|
Sittin' here waitin' for you right now to walk through that front door
|
Then I'll stop moanin' moanin' the blues then I'll stop moanin' moanin' the blues
|
