"Moanin'" lyrics - SERGIO MENDES

Everybody knows I'm moaning
I'm alone and crying the blues
I'm so tired of paying the dues
Everybody knows I'm moaning
'Cause of all the trouble I've seen
Life's a losing gamble to me
Everybody knows I'm moaning

Lord I stay plenty of days and nights alone with my grief
And I pray, really and truly pray somebody will come and bring me relief

Everybody knows I'm moaning
I'm alone and crying the blues
I'm so tired of paying the dues
Everybody knows I'm moaning
'Cause of all the trouble I've seen
Life's a losing gamble to me
Everybody knows I'm moaning
