Soulful Reflections: Embracing Life's Blues in 'Blue Moanin'
Lyrics
Blue moanin', go down so good
Expressing a feeling of melancholy or sadness.
You do your livin'
Living life and engaging in activities.
And it's a what you do
Emphasizing the importance of one's actions.
Did you listen to what your daddy say
Reflecting on advice or guidance from a parental figure.
Or did you find a moment
Questioning if one adhered to advice or got lost in a moment.
And just drift away?
Suggesting a possible distraction or deviation from the intended path.
Blue, blue moanin'
Reiterating the theme of sadness or emotional distress.
It's on it's way to you
Implying that a feeling of sadness is approaching.

You're always right

'Til the payment's due

Go down dancin'
Engaging in lively activities, possibly with a hint of sensuality.
With what they call the grind
Referring to a dance or physical interaction labeled as "the grind."
You do some relaxin'
Taking a break or relaxing after fulfilling obligations.
When you've done your time
Implying the completion of a certain period of commitment.
When you've done your time
Repeating the idea of completing a designated time frame.
And you think you're through
Suggesting surprise at encountering unexpected challenges.
You find them on your doorstep
Finding difficulties or problems at one's doorstep.
Now it's time to move
Signaling the need to take action or move forward.
