You won't listen to nothing I tell you, baby
You keep on doing just as you please
Hey, you won't do nothing I tell you, baby
Keep on doing as you please
I've taken as long as I can, baby
When is this foolishness gonna cease

I've worried myself crazy, baby

I've been downhearted, baby
Ever since the day we met
Baby, I said I've been downhearted, baby
Ever since the day we met
You know our love is nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?
You're evil when I'm with you, baby
And you are jealous when we're apart

Got a new way of driving
Come ride in this car with me
Got a new way of driving
Come ride in this car with me
I ride so you bring back your memory
We'll ride in the mornin'
Put your ? clothes in my ?
We'll ride in the mornin'

My baby woke up this mornin'
Said B, you must clean up and go
Well, my baby woke up this mornin'
Said B, you must clean up and go

'Cause the way that you been doin'
Can't take those treatments no more

B.B. Boogie darlin', the B.B. Boogie baby
Do the B.B. Boogie, if it takes you all night long

Well, I looked at the clock, the clock said four
My baby jumped up, she said, "B, let's go"

Do the B.B. Boogie baby, B.B. Boogie darlin'
Do the B.B. Boogie, if it takes you all night long

It rained five days, Lord and the clouds turned as dark as night
It rained five days, and the clouds turned as dark as night
Lord, that was really enough trouble to make a poor man, wonder where in the world to go

I got up one mornin', poor me I couldn't get even get out of my door
I got up one mornin', poor me I couldn't get even get out of my door
Lord, that was really enough trouble to make a poor man, wonder where in the world to go

Well, my bad luck is falling
Falling down like rain
Bad luck is falling
Falling down like rain

No matter what I do
Seems like my luck won't never change
I felt kinda lucky

I want to go home but I ain't got sufficient clothes
Doggone my bad luck soul
I ain't got no money and my job's done closed
I would call that old woman but I'm afraid that she may explode
My wife done quit me, my girlfriend too
Doggone my bad luck soul
I ain't got nobody and I don't know what to do
They say things will get better but I don't believe it's true

Yes, be careful with a fool
'Cause someday he may get smart
Well, be careful with a fool
'Cause someday he may get smart
Well, he'll treat you so cold and chilly
Till it will hurt you to your heart

Well, I hate to remember

I´ve been around and i´ve seen some things
People moving faster than the speed of sound
Faster than the speeding bullet
People living like superman
All day and all night
And i won´t say if it´s wrong or if it´s right
I´m pretty fast myself
But i do have some advice to pass along

People, I was standing at my window
Tears running all down my cheeks
Yes, standing at my window
Tears running all down my cheeks
Well, I could see the woman I'm loving
Stopping everyone in the world she meets
Well, standing on the corner
Between 35th and Main

Blues shadows fallin', since my baby went away
Blues shadows fallin', since my baby went away
You know the blues is my companion, every night and every day

The blues walked in this morning, when my baby said goodbye
The blues walked in this morning, when my baby said goodbye
I wish I could change her mind, but I know it's no use for me to try

People I've traveled from town to town
Seems like everybody want to put me down
Because I'm a bluesman
But I'm a good man, understand

I went down to the bus station
I looked upon the wall
My money was to light people

At the stroke of midnight
On that great big holiday
We're going to have a ball, and that ain't all
I'm gonna chase my blues away

I'll be bringin' in a brand new year
Bringin' in a brand new year
So listen dear, won't you meet me here

You`re breaking my heart, baby
There ain`t a damn thing I can do
You got me wringing my hands
And crying, baby

While you`re breaking my heart in two
You know I just can`t believe
I can`t believe, baby

Got a fine looking woman
I call her, 'That gal of mine'
Yes, she's a fine looking woman
I call her, 'That gal of mine'
Yes, the reason I love her
Because she is dressed so fine

Well, she's a fine looking woman

Woke up this morning
After another one of those crazy dreams
Oh, nothing is going right this morning
The whole world is wrong it seems
Oh, I guess it's the chain that binds me
I can't shake it loose, these chains and things

Got to work this morning

Run here, pretty mama
Sit down on your daddy's knee
So I can tell everybody
How you've been sending me

Mama, if this is your secret
You better keep it to yourself
Because if you tell me

Come by here, baby, come by here
Come by here, baby, come by here
Come by here, baby, come by here
Oh baby, won't you come by here

I love you baby, come by here
I love you baby, come by here

Baby, here I stand before you with my heart in my hand
I want you greet it mama hopin' that you'll understand
Oh baby, mama please don't dog me around
Well, I'd rather love you baby, than anyone else I know in town
Well, because you're so nice and lovely
And you have such pleasin' ways
If you take to your home I'll be there the rest of my days
That's the truth mama

Oh no matter what you say baby
No matter what you do
The way you treat me baby
You know, is coming back home to you

And your crying won't help you baby
Oh, crying won't help you now
crying won't help you baby

I want to dance with you baby
But I don?t move around so fast
I want to dance with you baby
But I don?t move around so fast
You really movin me baby
And you know that I can?t last

Dance in the morning baby dance till the afternoon

Oh darling, what happened to that beautiful smile?
The ones you gave me any time we were face to face
Oh is it someone else taking my place
Oh baby, what happened

Oh what happened to those fast heartbeats?
The ones that excited me so
Oh tell me, don't you love me

Now darlin' know I love you
And love you for myself
But you're gone and left me for someone else

I think of you every morning
And dream of you every night
And I would love to be with you always

Oh baby, don't you want a man like me
Oh baby, don't you want a man like me
I can love you baby
Better than your used to be

Oh baby, don't you need a man like me
Oh baby, don't you need a man like me
I can love you baby

Everyday
Everyday I have the blues
Everyday
Everyday I have the blues
When you see me worryin' woman, honey, it's you I hate to lose

Nobody loves me
Nobody seems to care

Everyday, everyday I have the blues
Ooh everyday, everyday I have the blues
When you see me worryin' baby, yeah it's you I hate to lose

Whoa nobody loves me, nobody seems to care
Whoa nobody loves me, nobody seems to care
Well worries and trouble darling, babe you know I've had my share

Well, I can't get along no matter what I do
Well, we can't get along no matter what I do
Yes, everything I do is wrong, no matter what I do

Well, let's make it up, baby, try it just one more time
Well, let's make it up, baby, try it just one more time
Well, if we don't get together, baby, won't be no fault of mine
Lay it down, alright then

Yes your talkin' about your woman,
Wish to God, man, you could see mine
Your talkin' about your woman,
Wish to God, man, you could see mine
When she start lovin',
She brings eyesight to the blind
Her daddy must have been a millionaire,
I can tell by the way she walks

If you ever been mistreated
Then you know just what I'm talking about
If you ever been mistreated people
Oh, you know just what I'm talking about

I tell you I worked, I worked
Five long years for a woman
And she had the nerve to put me out

They say there ain't no woman that a man can trust
That they all use joo-joo, and goofy dust
But I don't argue baby
And I won't make no fuss
'Cause I'm glad, glad, glad, I'm so glad baby
That you put it on me
Oh, I had pretty women in every town
And I played so hard when the sun went down

I don't know what love is, but I think I must have it bad
Yeah, you I don't know what love is, people, whoah, but I think I must have it bad
Yeah, you know some people say love is just a gamble, but whatever it is, it's enough to drive old me mad

They say love is just a proposition, people. it's strictly a game of give and take
Yeah, they tell me love, love, love is a proposition, people, they say it's strictly a game of give and take
Whoah, but my woman took all I gave her and I'm here to tell to you that love proposition stuff 's a fake

Here is somethin' baby, I want you to do
I ain't barrin' nobody baby, I mean you and your lyin' friends too
Don't cry baby, don't even spill a tear
Yes, you just pack your clothes baby,
Baby and get on outta here, get on outta here

Yeah, get on outta here
You and your friends you say you had fun,

She’s a ghetto woman, waitin for her man to come home
Oh poor ghetto woman waitin for her man to come home
She’s just a ghetto woman waitin for her man to come home
To come home

A rat run cross the floor, a roach turn up the wall
Everything is noisy around her, that don’t seem to bother her at all
Cause she’s a ghetto woman, sittin there all alone

Yes, you thought
You had a good thing, baby
You could do what you wanted to do
Yes, but you'd better
Find you another thing, baby
Because this thing
Is cutting out on you
I'm tired of you putting me down

There's no doubt about it
A may as well shout about it
I got the blues
I got'em bad

Yes this awful feeling
When you don't have what you thought you had
Oh yesterday, yesterday I sang love songs

Someone really loves you
Guess who
Guess who
S'open your heart,
oh, then surely you'll see,
oh, that someone who really cares is me
Someone will wait eternally
Someone who'll want your love,

Baby lights her cigarette
And takes a look around
She says that morning sun
Sure does get her down
Nothing else to see
Just to help her lose
Those happy birthday blues

Help the poor
Won't you help poor me?
Have a heart, won't you, baby
Listen to my plea
I need you so much, I need your care
Need all the loving, baby, you can spare
Help the poor
Oh, baby won't you help poor me?

Been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
I've been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
Our love is nothin' but the blues
Baby how blue can you get

My love is like a fire

How Many More Years, have I got to let you dog me around
How many more years, have I got to let you dog me around
I'd soon rather be dead, sleeping six feet in the ground

I'm gonna fall on my knees, I'm gonna raise up my right hand
I'm gonna fall on my knees, I'm gonna raise up my right hand
Say I'd feel much better darling, if you'd just only understand

You painted your lips baby
And you painted your eyes too
It's gettin' to the place now woman
'Til I can't hardly recognize you
If that's what it takes to be hip baby
Oh, I want you to be a square
I don't want you messing around baby
Oh, I don't want you cutting of your hair

Well I hate to see the sun sets in the West
'cause I know my whole life gonna be a solid mess
I got to find my baby I declare well I
I ain't had no real good lovin' since my gal said goodbye

Well, I walked this town from door to door
Gal I love can't find no more
I got to find my baby I declare well I

I know you don't love me no more
No more, no, no more
And I don't want to be hurt anymore
Anymore
I love so hard
Everything I did was no joy
If I can't love you right, baby
I don't have to love you at all

Oh my darling I was so lonely
Searching for you and for you only
Oh my darling I love you so
Oh my darling my love is true
Longing for you, no one else will do
Oh my darling I love you so
When I first saw you dear I knew you were alone
I said to myself that I'd make you my own

Oh I need you baby
Yes I need you baby
Oh I need you baby
Come on back home to me
I'll make it all up to you, woman
Just you wait around and see

I was wrong baby

I want to get married
But no woman will hear my plea
I want to get married
But no woman will hear my plea

Yes, it seems somehow
I can't get one to walk downthe aisle with me
Well, I've only been in love

I wonder why, why my baby won't treat me right
I wonder why, why my baby won't treat me right
She go off every day and she won't come home 'till night

"I'll be home" well, last week that's what she said
"I'll be home" well, last week that's what she said
She don't care if I don't eat

You may not be an angel
'Cause angels are so few
But until the day that one comes along
I'll string along with you

I'm looking for an angel
To sing my love song to
And until the day that one comes along

You say you’re leaving, you’ve shattered my dreams
All of our plans dear, forgotten it seems
Yes, it had to happen
I’m not surprised, but i’ll, I’ll survive

Your friends have shown you a much better way
All of my loving you baby, all of those years, ended today
Yes, you go on darlin’

Just this morning
I took a big long look around
I've lived it up and loved it up
And done it in this town

Life goes on
Look like it's time
For moving on

Sometimes
I got worried wo-ho
I don't know what to do
Because the women that I'm loving is breaking my heart in two
I remember way back when all the money, the money was rolling in
My women was good to me and I had a lot of friends

Oh but now I'm getting older

I don't have to know your name
Unless you really want me too
All I really want to know
Is what you want to do
Hope there's something you like
In something that you see
I don't have that much to say for me

Hey, you're the greatest thing in my life, baby
Oh, without your love baby, I don't know just what I'll do
Oh, years of loving you, you've been so true
I believe I'd lose my mind if I lost you

Oh, I guess I've been lucky to have someone so dear
To talk and laugh and always bring me cheer
Oh, after all of this years, you've been so true to me baby

Caught in quicksand and I'm startin' to sink
So tired of strugglin' that my mind can barely think
I don't know where I'm goin'
Lord, I don't know what I'm gonna do

My fuel supply is finished, there ain't nothing left to burn
I need someone to help me but I don't know which way to turn
I know I don't have much of a choice

I got a gal whos always late,
anytime we have a date
but i love her,
yes i love her
I'm gunna walk right up to her gate
and see if i can get it straight
cause I want her
I'm gunna ask her

This is a mean old world, baby to live in all by yourself
Yes it's a mean old world, baby to live in all by yourself
Yes, you can't get the woman you love and you have to put up with somebody else

Baby, I smile to keep from worryin' and I laugh just to keep from cryin'
Oh I smile to keep from worryin', baby and I laugh just to keep from cryin'
Well, that's to keep the public for knowin' what I got on my mind

It's my own fault, baby
Treat me the way you want to do
It's my own fault, baby
Treat me the way you want to do
Yes, at the time, you were loving me, baby
At that time, little girl, I didn't love you

Used to make your own pay checks, baby

Well, my head is spinnin'
Like a spinnin' top
I got rhythm in my feet
And I really wanna hop
I wanna jump with you, baby
I wanna jump with you, baby
I wanna jump with you, baby
Babe, I mean tonight

Well, I want to tell the story about a hard luck guy
Nobody seems to love me, I guess that`s the reason why
Just dreams, dreams all night long and through the day
Yes, and it`s so sad, oh, to break my heart this way
Yes, I`m not handsome or romantic, I don`t have wavy hair
Won`t you girls please have mercy
The way you treat me ain`t fair
Why does bad luck follow me

I like cake, no mistake, but baby if you insist
I'll cut out the cake, just for your sake
Baby! see'mon and knock me a kiss

I like pie, i hope to die, just to get a load of this
When you get high, doggone the pie
Baby! see'mon and knock me a kiss

Baby that feeling they call the blues
All by myself baby, yes I began to weep

Don't be afraid, baby

Oh! I’m feeling mighty fine this morning

You`re about to believe in love again
I`ll take you there and bring you back again
The night is short
Tomorrows are long

Come go with me
While the feeling is strong
Midnight believer

Yes, I'm sittin' here thinkin'
Thinkin' about Miss Martha King
Well, I'm sitin' here thinkin'
Thinkin' about Miss Martha King
I'm in love with that woman
I ain't afraid to call her name
Lord, I did everythin' for you
Done everything I could

I`m a pawnbroker
What do you want on your ring
I`m a pawnbroker
What do you want on your ring
See like every woman I loaned
They want the same old thing
Have to use my tester
And see if will stand the test

Don't you understand me baby? There'll never be no other one but you.
Don't you understand me baby? There'll never be no other one but you.
I loved you then and I love you now, and no one else will ever do.

Every time the sun goes down, my love comes down for you.
Every time it rains, my love comes down for you.
Cause there's no other woman, will understand me the way you do.

The sound that you're listening to is from my guitar
That's named Lucille. I'm very crazy about Lucille.
Lucille took me from the plantation. Oh you might say,
Brought me fame.
I don't think I could just talk enough about Lucille.

B. B. KING : Never Trust a Woman

Never Trust a Woman

Don't ever trust a woman
Until she's dead and buried
Yes don't ever trust a woman
Until she's dead and buried

Your letter I read early this morning baby
And I read every word you had to say
Your letter I read early this morning baby
And I read every word you had to say
But if you love me like you say you do baby
I want to know what in the world did you go away
Your letter said that you're doing ok baby
But then I read please, let me come back home

On my word of honor
All my love belongs to you
Please put your faith in me
You'll see how true I'll be
On my word of honor
You can trust me with your heart
And I pledge mine to you
It's yours my whole life through

All of your affection is gone baby and your love is growing cold
I've said all of your affection is gone baby and your love is growing cold
Hey, I've got a new story to tell you this evening, baby
One that ain't never been told

I went to work the other day
But I thought that I would double back
And that car I saw sitting in front of my door

I want you to stop right there, baby
Baby, and try to understand
Hey, I might have been your fool for a while, baby

But I know I'm a good loving man
And you shouldn't lie to me, baby
Makes me mad as a man can be
I know when you got home last night

You act like you don't want to listen
When I'm talking to you
You think you outta do baby
Anything you want to do
You must be crazy baby
You just gotta be outta your mind
As long as i'm payin' the bills woman
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss

I've had everything that money can buy
Oh, but still I'm so unhappy darling, that I could cry
Because I've never had peace of mind
Darling, in my lifetime
When you're in trouble and all down and out
Then you'll find out, darling, what it's all about
Then you'll realize that peace of mind
Darling, is hard to find

You act like you don't want to listen
When I'm talking to you
You think you outta do baby
Anything you want to do
You must be crazy baby
You just gotta be outta your mind
As long as i'm payin' the bills woman
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss

I don't even know your name
But I love you just the same
Darling, let me hold your hand
Till I make you understand
If you only, only knew
Just how much I love you
Loving you the way that I do
You'd take the night to love me too

When I first met you, said you would be mine
Found out later you was tellin' me a lie
And now I'm walkin', walkin' and cryin'
You don't love me no more

Now if there's one thing that I just can't stand
Can't stand to see you with another man
Because I'm walkin', walkin' and cryin'

Well, I'm feeling alright
Everything's okay
Well, I'm feeling alright
And everything's okay
Well, I got a letter from my baby
She's coming home today

Oh, won't you come on, baby?

I've been in love with you baby
Honey before I learned to call your name
Yes, I was in love with you baby
Honey before I learned to call your name
Yeah, the way you treatin' me baby
Honey you gonna drive old me insane

Yeah, you know I love you

Know I love you for myself
Yes, and you're gone to somebody else
And I'm worried yes, I'm worried all alone

I go to bed prayin' each night
I'm hopin' darlin', you'll treat me right
And I'm worried yes, as a man can be

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, help me stand
Lord, I'm tired, Lord, I'm so weak
Lord, You know I am worn

Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home

Well, I work hard everyday
Come home straight with my pay
My baby either drink it up
Or she threw it all away

I'm gonna quit my baby
If she don't stop cheatin' and lyin'
Well, I would rather be alone

Do I have to have sleepless nights?
Do my days have to be so blue?
Do I have to have sleepless nights?
Do my days have to be so blue?
Will I have to suffer for the rest of my life?
Just because I'm so in love with you.

Will the sun have to shine

Since this recession I'm losing my baby,
Because the times are getting so hard
Yes, since this recession I'm losing my baby,
Because the times are getting so hard
Yes, I have to stop running around,
Man, you know it's breaking my heart

Yes, I can't afford no liquor,

So long, oh how I hate to see you go
So long, oh how I hate to see you go
And the way that I will miss you
I guess you will never know

We've been together so long, to have to separate this way
We've been together so long, to have to separate this way
I'm gonna let you go ahead on baby

Rock me baby, rock me all night long
Rock me baby, honey, rock me all night long
I want you to rock me baby, like my back ain't got no bone
Roll me baby, like you roll a wagon wheel
Honey, roll me baby, like you roll a wagon wheel
Want you to roll me baby, you don't know how it make me feel

Rock me baby, honey, rock me slow

Well now I`ve got a girl
Her name is Ruby Lee
I`m tellin` you boys
She`s alright with me

She`s my baby
Yes, she`s my baby
Well, she`s my baby

Same old story, same old song
Goes all right till it goes all wrong
Now you're going, then you're gone
Same old story, same old song

One hand will take, one hand will give
That's all we know and that is how we live
One day hello, next day goodbye

Well there's one kind of favor I'll ask for you
Well there's one kind of favor I'll ask for you
There's just one kind of favor I'll ask for you
You can see that my grave is kept clean.

And there's two white horses following me
And there's two white horses following me
I got two white horses following me

You might be old, about 90 years
But you ain`t too old to shift them gears
You can shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)
Shake it up and go (Shake it up and go)

You good-looking people sure can shake it up and go
Mama killed a chicken, she thought it was a duck
She put it on the table with his legs sticking up

I've got a mean woman, and she's always doing me wrong
Yes, you know she's mean, and she's always doing me wrong
I believe to my soul, I've got leave my home
She is a mean woman, oh, she never treats me right
Oh, mean and evil woman, and she never treats me right
Only go around every day, and don't come home 'til midnight
Lord, if only, only she would treat me fair
Oh, if i could get my baby, if could only get her to treat me fair

I work hard every day
Do the same at night
But still my baby
Ain't treating me right

Tell me baby, baby, baby, baby
What can I do?
Do I have to shut your mouth

Work all the summer and all the fall
Just trying to find my little Lenore
But now she's gone, and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world

One summer day when she went away
Just when she left me, she's gone to stay
But now she's gone and I don't worry

Well hello, pretty baby
I just called to say that we're through
Because I'm so tired of sneakin' around with you
I want to meet you in the sunlight
Not in a secret rendezvous
Because I'm so tired of sneakin' around with you
Oh, you never, you never meant to be mine
Oh, I was just too blind to see

Oh, I'm so excited, think about you all the time
Yes, I can't wait to see you baby
You really best of my mind
You're so fine, wanna hold you all the time
Oh, when, when you touch me baby, tears of joy I'm crying
Oh, and when you hold me chills run up and down my spine
You're so fine, think about you all the time
Yes, I'm so excited, I met peace with the world

Late last night I was dreaming
I was dreaming of your charms
I was standing
On the edge of love, darling
With you in my arms

Well you whispered sweet things
And told me

You stole my heart away, baby
And you know you robbed me all my pride
You stole my heart away, baby
And you know you robbed me all my pride
Yes, I ain't got nothing left now, baby
But a great big heartache inside

My friends I used to have, baby

Hot town summer in the city
Back of my kneck gettin dirty and gritty
I been down isnt it a pity
Doesnt seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people lookin half dead
Walkin down the sidewalk out of their match head
But at night its a different world
Go out and find the girl

When I first met you, baby
Baby, you were just sweet sixteen
When I first met you, baby
Baby, you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then, woman
Ah, the sweetest thing I'd ever seen

But you wouldn't do nothing, baby

I've got a sweet little angel
I love the way she spread her wings

Yes got a sweet little angel
I love the way she spread her wings

Yes when she spread her wings around me
I get joy in everything

When I first met you, baby
Baby, you were just sweet sixteen
When I first met you, baby
Baby, you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then, woman
Ah, the sweetest thing I'd ever seen

But you wouldn't do nothing, baby

Swing low
Sweet Chariot
Coming forth to carry me Home
Swing low, sweet chariot
coming forth to carry me home

Well, I looked over Jordan, and what did I see
Coming for to carry me home?

If you`re gonna walk on my love, baby
The least you can do is take off your shoes.
Yeah, if you`re gonna walk on my love, baby
The least you can do is take off your shoes.
Yes, how can you hurt me so bad, baby
After I`ve been so good to you.

Coming home last night about half past ten,

Just tell me baby! Just tell me baby!
What can I do to change your mind?
Hey, hey, hey baby
What can I do to change your mind
I've got the blues about you baby*
You keep me worried all the time

You say you love me

Well, I had a woman
She was nice and loving to me in every way
Oh, I had a woman
She was nice and loving to me in every way
Oh, she used to love me
Bring my breakfast to the bed every day
Oh, for ten long years
Yes, she was my pride and joy

Hey baby, you ain't treating me right
You go off everyday and don't come home til night

[Chorus]
That ain't the way to do it [Repeat: x3]
That ain't the way to get along

Well i'm pickin' you up and takin' you to my house

Whenever I try to hold my baby
She just stand there for a while
No matter how I try to please that woman
She won't even crack a smile
Lord, maybe you in heaven can help me
'Cause this is one evil child
Oh, I say maybe, maybe somebody can help me
Because this is one evil child

When you fight with your lover
She takes you for a fool
She don't care how she hurts you
Long as she's doing what she choose

That's wrong little mama
That's wrong little mama
That's wrong little mama

There's a new dance on the streets
And it's mean, baby, mean
(Mean, baby, mean)
(Mean, baby, mean)

It wipes the African Twist
Hey, mama, right off of the scene
(Right off of the scene)

Gone are the days I'm holding you tight
Gone are the times I thrill with delight
Oh how I've missed you and your tender kiss, I've been a fool too long

I took your love then broke my heart
Can you forgive me, we'll make a new start
Guess life ain't worth living if you ain't giving, I've been a fool to long

I may go and move to the jungle now
Way out in the woods
Yes, I think I`ll move to the jungle people
Move way out in the woods

Yes, because the way things are here now
Well, I ain`t doin` myself no good
I work hard everyday

At the end of my rainbow
I seek no golden prize
For the key to my kingdom
Is the glow in your eyes

Gain and power and riches
Are thrills I'll never miss
For the key to my kingdom

Yes, I want to write a letter
But I don't know just where to begin
Yes, I want to write a letter, people
But I don't know just where to begin
Well, I tell you, it's a sin, people
The way I've been treated by my so called friends

Yes, if I got a dollar

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong baby
And you'll be sorry someday

The thrill is gone

"Одиночество в сети"

Well now it's three o'clock in the morning
And I can't even close my eyes
Three o'clock in the morning baby
And I can't even close my eyes
Can't find my baby

There was a time when I loved you
That was a time baby, you made blue
There's a time for everything baby
Now it's time to say we're through

Remember the time baby, you made me cry
And the times baby, you broke my heart
But there's a time for everything baby

You're sittin' there lookin' proud
Thinkin' you're so fine
Tryin' to run around
With every friend of mine
Think you're so smart baby
Think that I'm a fool
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you baby
You'd better play it cool

To know you, is to love you,but to know me, is not that way you see
'Cause you make me, so happy,that my love for you grows intensely
When I'm down and feelin' sad,you always comfort me
When I'm down and feelin' sad,you always comfort me
Baby, to know you is to love you,you smile when I see your face
'Cause there is no one on this earth
Baby, could ever, ever take your place
When I'm down and feelin' sad,you always comfort me

I was trying to be true to you baby
Trying to please in every way
Yes, but the more I try to please you baby
The further you stray away
Yes, but I know you're gonna miss me baby
'Cause tomorrow is another day

Yes, it was just last night baby

Oh baby, why can't you treat me right?
Oh baby, why can't you treat me right?
You took all my money and you done me wrong
Staying out all night baby and you won't come home
Oh baby, why can't you treat me right?

Oh baby, you know my love is true
Oh baby, you know my love is true

You never treated me gentle
Yet you spend up all of my gold
Then you look around for a young man
Tell me I'm too old

That's why we can't agree
Yeah, baby, we can't agree
Now if I don't see you no more, baby

We can't make it baby
We can't last another year
We can't make it baby
We can't last another year
Well I try to treat you kind baby
But it seems like you got the wrong idea
I give you all of my money baby
To buy those real fine clothes

People say you love but one at time
For every woman there`s a man
My baby say she wasn`t put here forever
So she`s gonna get as many as she can

What can I do
Yes, I just sing the blues
Well, I just sing the blues

When my heart get to beating like a hammer
And my eyes get full of tears
Oh, when my heart get to beating like a hammer
And my eyes get full of tears
Well, you only been gone twenty-four hours, baby
Oh, but it seems like, it seems like a million years

Well, if I ever mistreated you, darlin'

I wonder why
Why does everything have to happen to me
I wonder why
Why does everything have to happen to me
Well, I'm blue and I'm lonesome
My heart is filled with misery

Oh, so many strange things

Everybody wants to know
Why I sing the blues
Yes, I say everybody wanna know
Why I sing the blues
Well, I've been around a long time
I really have paid my dues

When I first got the blues

Worry worry worry
Worry is all I can do
Oh worry worry worry baby
Worry is all I can do
Oh my life is so miserable baby
Baby, and its all on account of you

You hurt me so bad baby

Well, worry worry worry
Worry is all I can do
Yes, worry worry worry baby
Worry is all I can do
Yes, my life is so miserable baby
Baby, and it's all on account of you
Yes, it hurt me so bad
When you said that we were through

You took me way back in the country
You fed me on love and greens
You laid my head upon a feather bed
And I sure had some mighty sweet dreams
Don`t you know we got something going on
You and me, me and you
Love can be a song if you like the tune
So sing to me, I`ll sing to you

Well she's 30 in the bust
24 in the waist
44 in the hips, man
She got what it takes

You upset me baby
Upset me baby
Like being hit by a falling tree

Oh you're gonna miss me baby
And I'll be so far away
Oh you're gonna miss me baby
And I'll be so far away
You know you better change now baby
Baby there's always another day

Oh your friend will always tell you baby

If you can't do no better, baby
Think I'd better get me another that can
Yes, if you can't do no better, baby
Think I'd better get me another that can
You know you're goin' around cheatin' on me
You ain't doin' nothin' but losin' a good man

You know life is too short to be worried

Yes your letter reached me early this morning baby
And I read every word you had to say
I said your letter reached me early this morning baby
And I read every word you had to say
But you know I just don't understand you waman
If you love me why in the world did you go away

Your letter said that you're doing ok
