Lyrics I gotta moan I don't feel so good this morning Oh, oh, my baby's been gone a long time Why did you have to go? Why did you have to leave? Can't stand being alone I, all I do is cry and moan I remember when you used to love me in the morning Oh, you used to bring my coffee to my bed I remember when you used to squeeze me And rub my little achin' head, squeeze me tight I, all I do is cry and moan I remember the good ole days I never dreamed that there was a price to pay, tried, tried, oh If I had just one more day, maybe there's a chance That I could have made her stay but oh now you're gone, and oh I remember the good ole days I never dreamed that there was a price to pay, tried, tried, so If I had just one more day, maybe there's a chance That I could have made her stay but, oh, now you're gone, and oh All I do is weep and moan, hey I don't feel so good this morning Why did you have to go away? Why did you have to leave? Can't stand being alone And I, all I do is cry and moan Hey, I, all I do is cry and moan Hey, I, all I do is cry and moan I remember when, oh I remember when, hey I don't feel so good this morning
Robert Cray does not get the recognition in popular music that he should, but then again, not many true blues artists get the recognition that they deserve. The guy is a top 20 blues artist in the last 50 years, and he might as well be living under a rock for how many people even know him.
Robert Cray is a true singer with a tune voice as James Brown, Stevie W onder , Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye, and some others. Now he is also a musician and a guitarist. This guy has it all. i
I first heard this album wandering into Rival Records on a listening booth as an 17yr old kid expecting some '...persuader' or '.. afraid of the dark'. As that was the only stuff I knew at the time, I bought it regardless....anyway 24 odd years later, it's one of my favourite R.C albums.
This is one of my favorite songs. Can't say I'm a huge fan. I might be wrong, but it seems like he has one great song per album. Add them all up, and you got a greatest hits album. I used to play this song to death on my blues radio show back in the nineties. It still feels fresh all these years later.
