Why Do You Moan? by Bo Weavil Jackson Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1926

I feel bad, always sad, troubles, troubles, drivin' me mad
Good old days of long ago, long ago, to come no more
That's the reason why you hear me weep and moan

Mmmmmm, mmmmmmmm, Lawd Lawdy
How my heart aches, soon it will break
I'm almost through, what will I do?
Lord, the reason why you hear me weep and moan

My Mama's dead, my Daddy, too
That's the reason why, got these weepin', moanin' blues
So many days, stoled away and cried, I have been mistreated, I can't be satisfied
Lord, the reason why you hear me weep and moan

Mmmmmmm, mmmmmmmmm, Lawd, Lawd, Lawdy
How my heart aches, soon it will break
I'm almost through, what will I do?
Lord, the reason why you hear me weep and moan

I ain't got no friends, I ain't got no home
And there's no place, mama, I can call my home
Good old days, long ago, long ago to come no more
Lord, the reason why you hear me moan these blues
Mmmmmmmm, mmmmmmmmm, mmmmmmm
How my heart aches, soon it will break
I'm almost through, what will I do?
Lord, the reason why you hear me moan these blues

Mmmmmmmm, mmmmmmmmm. mmmmmmm
How my heart aches, soon it'll break
I'm almost through, what will I do?
Lord, the reason why you hear me moan these blues
I mean the blues
