Hank Williams Moanin' the Blues lyrics

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
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 of been wrong
'Cause my head is startin' to bow

And now I'm moanin'
Moanin' the blues

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 moanin'
Moanin' the blues

Aw! 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
