Freddie King

There is nothing I can do, nothing I can say
That folks don't criticize me, but I'm gonna do
Just what I want to do anyway, don't care if they all despise me
One day we have ham and bacon
And the next day ain't nothing shaking
But it ain't nobody's business if we do
If me and my baby fuzz and fight
Yes and the next minute let me tell you were alright
Ain't nobody's business if we do
I'm three three times seven
Lord, lord, lord let me tell you it makes twenty one
And it ain't nobody's business what I'll do
Lord, lord, lord,lord, lord, lord, lord,
Lord, lord, lord,lord, lord, lord, lord,
Ain't nobody's business what I'll do
I said lord, lord, lord,lord, lord, lord, lord,
Mmm, lord, lord
And it ain't nobody's business what I'll do

I love the tip, I love the top
I love you better than a hog loves slop

'Cause you're a big legged woman
With a short, short miniskirt
Promise me darlin'
You'll never make me feel like dirt

Do you have the vine goes around the stump?
You are mine, call it sugar lump

'Cause you're a big legged woman
With a short, short miniskirt
Promise me darlin'
You'll never make me feel like dirt

I've told you once, I've told you twice
We go together like fried beans and rice

'Cause you're a big legged woman
With a short, short miniskirt, alright
Promise me darlin'
You'll never make me feel like dirt

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
You mess with my woman
I'm gonna hurt you first

'Cause she's a big legged woman
With a short, short miniskirt
Promise me darlin'
You'll never make me feel like dirt

I love my big legged woman
I love my big legged woman

She's alright, she's alright

She's alright, she's alright
She's alright, she's alright
She's alright, she's alright
She's alright, she's alright

People talkin' but they just don't know,
What's in my heart, and why I love you so.
I love you baby like a miner loves gold.
Come on sugar, let the good times roll. hey!

So many people live in make believe,
They keep a lot a going up their sleeves.
But my love baby is no kind that folds.
Come on baby, let the good times roll.

Baby, come on and let daddy fill your soul.
Baby, let the good times roll.
Hey!

A love is nice if it's understood
It's even nicer when you're feelin' good
You got me flippin' like flag on a pole
Come on sugar, let the good times roll

Hey! Yeah! Let the good times roll!
Feel me baby! Come on, good times roll!
Come on and let me fill your soul,
Hey, let the good times roll

Have you ever loved a woman
So much you tremble in pain?
Yee-es!
Have you ever loved a woman
So much you tremble in pain?
Yee-es!
All the time you know
She bears another man's name

You just love that woman
So much it's a shame and a sin
Yee-es!
You just love that woman
So much it's a shame and a sin
Yes, you know, yes you know
She belongs to your very best friend

And yee-es!
Have you ever loved a woman
One that you know you can't leave her alone?
And yee-es!
Have you ever loved a woman (sing!)
Onet you know you can't leave her alone?
A- yee-es!
But there's something deep inside a-you
Won't let you wreck yo best friend's home.

Yea-ay-ay-ay.

When my baby leaves me, there is nothing I can do
I pick up my guitar and then I play a little blues or two
Now, a man needs some loving, I ain't different from the rest
My baby, when she leaves me, ah, my whole life is in a mess

Just me and my guitar
I play the blues for you, babe
No matter where you are

I like to start out easy, just to get that feel
When I fell me strange, you know I make it for real
Then I put some hots on it and I play a time or two
And love you, baby, and I don't care what you do

Babe, ah, me and my guitar
I play the blues for you, babe
No matter where you are, alright?

Listen to me
Satisfaction don't come easy, you got to get in to make it good
The way I make my guitar singing, just let my woman should
She never talk right to me like some woman do
I feel so sad and lonesome when I play this lowdown blues

Hey, hey, me and my guitar
I play the blues for you, babe
No matter where you are, alright?

Hey, baby, hey, baby, just me and my guitar
I play the blues for me, baby
No matter where you are

The sky is crying, look at the tears rolling down the streets.
The sky is crying, look at the tears rolling down the streets.
I looked out my window, the rain was falling down in sheets.
My baby left me this morning, Lord knows I don't know the reason
why.
My baby left me this morning, I don't know the reason why.
And everytime I think about it, I hang my head and cry.
The sun is shining, although it's raining in my heart.
The sun is shining, although it's raining in my heart.
I love my baby, I hate to see us part.

You were wrong, you were wrong
You were wrong, yeah, you were wrong
You were wrong, baby, stayin' away too long
You know it ain't right, it ain't right,
It ain't right, it ain't right
It ain't right, stayin' out all night
I try and I try with all my might, to do the thing that's right
No matter how good I treat you baby, you only wanna fuss and fight
You were wrong, you were wrong
You were wrong, yeah, you were wrong
You were wrong, baby, stayin' away too long
You know it ain't right, it ain't right
I ask myself, and I ask myself, and ask myself again,
How can you do the things that right, when you keep on livin' in sin?
You were wrong, you were wrong
You were wrong, yeah, you were wrong
You were wrong, baby, stayin' away too long
You know it ain't right, it ain't right

Spoken:
I know you heard about the blues
But I would like to give you my feeling of the blues
So if you just sit down for a few minutes and listen to me
I'll give you my feeling of the blues, because I think I got 'em

They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse and Thursday's also sad
Yes, the eagle flies on Friday and Saturday I go out to play
Eagle flies on Friday and Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray
Lord, have mercy, Lord, have mercy on me.
Lord, have mercy, my heart's in misery:
Crazy 'bout my baby, yes, send her back to me!

Have you ever loved a woman
So much you tremble in pain?
Yee-es!
Have you ever loved a woman
So much you tremble in pain?
Yee-es!
All the time you know
She bears another man's name

You just love that woman
So much it's a shame and a sin
Yee-es!
You just love that woman
So much it's a shame and a sin
Yes, you know, yes you know
She belongs to your very best friend

And yee-es!
Have you ever loved a woman
One that you know you can't leave her alone?
And yee-es!
Have you ever loved a woman (sing!)
Onet you know you can't leave her alone?
A- yee-es!
But there's something deep inside a-you
Won't let you wreck yo best friend's home.

Yea-ay-ay-ay.

When I say what I want, that's the way it's gonna be
She fall over backwards to go right on pleasin' me
Oh she's my baby, she's my baby, can't you see
I can't call her sugar 'cause sugar never was so sweet

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

Hey I ought to leave
I ought to leave her alone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
