Moanin' low,
My sweet man, I love him so;
Though he's mean as can be;
He's the kind of a man needs the
kind of woman like me.
Gonna die, if sweet man should pass
me by,
If I die, where'll he be?
He's the kind of a man needs the
kind of woman like me.
Don't know any reason why he treats
me so poorly;
What have I gone and done?
Makes my troubles double with his
worries,
When surely I ain't deservin' of
none.
Moanin' low,
My sweet man is gonna go,
When he goes, oh, Lordy!
He's the kind of a man needs the
kind of woman like me.
Don't know any reason why he treats
me so poorly;
What have I gone and done?
Makes my troubles double with his
worries,
When surely I ain't deservin' of
none.
Moanin' low,
My sweet man is gonna go,
When he goes, oh, Lordy!
He's the kind of a man needs the
kind of woman like me.
My man is leavin' me.
