B. B. King lyrics
Album: Mr. Blues [1963]
| Blues at Midnight | |
|
When that midnight hour went chiming,
I was in my room alone
Yes, when that midnight hour went chiming,
I was in my room alone
Yes, and when I came home this evening,
I found my baby gone
Oh, I laid my head on my pillow,
I gazed up at the stars up above
Yes, I laid my head on my pillow,
yes, lookin' up at the stars above
I tell you it's a miserable feeling,
oh, when you lose the one you love
Oh, I get the blues at midnight,
oh there's one thing I can't describe
Oh, I get the blues at midnight,
oh there's one thing I can't describe
Yes, and when you look at your baby's picture
oh, the tears will come from your eyes

| Sneakin' Around | |
|
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're never meant to be mine
I was just too blind to see
Oh but I've got my pride, so why should we hide
When you might as well be free
Oh I love, you know I love you
Oh, and I want to tell the world I do
That's why I'm so tired of sneakin' around with you
Oh I'm so tired of sneakin' around with you
Oh, I'm so tired of sneakin' around with you

| On My Word of Honor | |
|
On my word of honor
All my love belongs to you
Please put your faith in me
You 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
Baby, lips never kiss you
Again if they're telling you a lie
And forever, ever, ever, ever and ever
I cross my heart and hope to die
On my word of honor
You mean everything to me
I swear by stars above
I'll keep my word, my love
Baby, lips never kiss you
Again if they're telling you a lie
And forever, ever, ever, ever and ever
I cross my heart and hope to die
On my word of honor
You mean everything to me
I swear by stars above
I'll keep my word, my love
|
| Guess Who? | |
|
Someone really loves you
Guess who
Someone really cares
Guess who
S'open your heart,
oh, then surely you'll see,
oh, that the someone who really cares is me
Someone will wait eternally
Someone who'll want your love,
oh so desp'rately
Open your heart,
oh, then surely you'll see,
oh, that the someone who really cares,
who really cares is me
