Moaning the Blues

Moaning the Blues - Norman Bullock

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

Just keep moaning moaning the blues

I wrote a nice long letter

Saying mama please come home

Your daddy is lonesome

All I do is moan

I've been loving that gal

For so dog gone 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

Now I'm moaning moaning the blues

If you wanna good gal

To stay around you

Got to treat her nice and kind

If you do her wrong

She'll leave this town

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

All I do is moan

I promise you baby

That I'll be good

And I'll never be bad no more

I'm sitting here waiting for you right now

To walk through that front door

Then I'll stop moaning moaning the blues
