Moanin News Lyrics

Moanin News lyrics

There once was a man, who loved to sing the blues

He'd two pair of pants
and just one pair of shoes

But when he's moan that lowdown dirty blues

People come a-runnin' from miles around

Just to hear what he was
puttin' down

That is why they call him

The moanin' news

The
moanin' news



Late at night, when he start to make his move

He irons his pants, and shines those pair of shoes

And then he moan
that gutbucket downhome blues

People would begin to jump and shout

After they had heard what he was talkin' about

That is why they call
him

The moanin' blues

The moanin' blues



He starts to
moan

He said "A-hoo... A-hoo..."

He start to moan

He said
"A-hoo... A-hoo..."

People come a-runnin' from far away

Just to
hear what the man had to say

That is why they call him

The moanin'
blues

The moanin' blues



Later on, when he finally found
success

He come back home, and tried to get some rest

And he could
moan, that funky urban blues

Now that you're in, you turn on your TV

You never guessed who you might see

The man they used to call

The moanin' blues

The moanin' blues

The moanin' blues

The
moanin' blues
