Lyrics Patti LaBelle

Patti LaBelle

Moanin

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'

Every evening I am moanin'

Cuz of all the trouble I see

Life's a losing gamble to me

Everybody knows I'm moanin'

Lord I spend a many 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'

Lord I spend a many 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'

I'm moanin'

I'm moanin'

I'm moanin' moanin' moanin'

Yes I am

(At least I used to be)
