When my baby moved out and the blues moved in   There wasn't nothin' I could do   Said 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"      Well I 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      Well if you want a good gal to stay around   You gotta treat her nice and kind   'Coz if you do her wrong, she'll leave this town   And you'll almost lose your mlind   Then you'll moanin', moanin' the blues      Baby, baby, baby, honey baby, please come home   Your daddy is lonesome and all I do is moan      Well I 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
