I'm so tired of moaning, Trying to groan away my blues. I'm so tired of moaning, Trying to groan away my blues. I keep weeping and crying Every time i think of you. I would rather die of starvation, Perish out in the desert sun, I would rather die of starvation, Perish out in the desert sun, Than to think of some other man Holding you in his arms. My heart gets so heavy Lord i shakes down in my bones. My heart gets so heavy, Lord i shakes down in my bones. I can't hurt a murderer, Oh lord, but i'm forced to weep and moan.
