moanin'

every mornin' finds me moanin'

i'm alone and crying the blues

i'm so tired of paying the dues

everybody knows i'm moanin'

every evening i am moanin'

'cause of all i the trouble i see

life's a losing gamble to me

everybody knows i moanin'

lord

i spend many a days and nights alone with my grief

and i pray

really and truly pray

somebody will come and bring me relief

every mornin' finds me moanin'

i'm alone and crying the blues

i'm so tired of paying my dues

everybody knows i'm moanin'
