B.B. King - Night Life Lyrics
When that ev'nin' sun goes down,
Yeah, you'll find me hangin' around
Because the night life,
It ain't no good life but it's my life
Listen to what they're sayin'
Oh, please listen to the blues,
Listen to the blues they're playin'
Ah, ah, all of the people just like you and me,
They're all dreamin' about their old used to be
Because the night life,
It ain't no good life but it's my life
They tell me life's an empty scene,
Because the night life,
It ain't no good life but it's my life

Thanks Great Bluesman thanks for your great music,
Was listening to a Terry Gross interview with Willie Nelson in which he talked about writing three pretty good songs in one week when he was working as a DJ in LA, Night Life, Funny How Time Slips Away, and. Crazy. Not a bad weeks work. And BB took it to amazing places. I miss him
We are watching and listening to someone who changed the world.
Cant stop reliving that old used to be when its still better than all we have now! RIP !
love bb my man ,my bro
I don't know why, but everyone who is listening bb I love u all (seriously). I know that bb have his own, special audition... And anyone can explain why is bb is like this? I dont mean his guitar techniques. I'm interested in, how he can look into my soul and understand what I need, what I hate or what will be likable for me... (sorry for my english) ❤️ ❤️
Pure brilliant
Te amamos por siempre BB.
does somebody know who is the trumpet guy??
This man....
29 people who are dislikes this such a beautiful performance must be fan of DJ and others crap song nowadays.
No wonder I couldn't find the toilet plunger!
James Boogaloo Bolton on Trumpet from Houston Texas .
amazing!
Written by Willie Nelson,sang by B.B.King, two legends !!
love his faces lmao
Just...Wow. i did a mid-size club stage security gig for him one night in the mid 80's and drank beers with the man and his band afterwards. One of the highlights of my life. He was a total yeoman all class, who liked Heineken and had the biggest softest hands i ever saw.
Aren't you love this ❤
Spectacular rendition, the trumpet player is phenomenal and so, as usual, is The King . RIP.
I love bb and this song but did anyone notice how hot they got his mic? He’s like a mile away from the thing.
at 2.17 who says in Sweden?
To the people who disliked: What were you expecting exactly?
Não tem como não se emocionar com essa musica
Ahhh eargasm fkn masterpiece! 😘
Lucille is the best singer I've ever heard
Lucille es la mejor cantante que he escuchado
The grimece he made
Anybody else notice the plunger head for a trumpet mute?
Feeling...
The King of the blues! Always has been, always will be 😊
A masterful performance from, well, the Master.
How blue can he get? PLENTY!
Magnifique....
This is just good got blam music. I mean yes Lordt!!
god bless BB and all who live to serve...
Who is the pianist? So so so amazing!!!
isisip Eugene carrier
BB never sang and played at the same time.He said he couldn't do it.
Richard B. Davis oh, he could - in his radio days as the PepTiCon King he had to as there were no other musicians in the studio - but he didnt have the feel for rhythm guitar that others had and chose not to let it interfere with his soloing. If you study his chord technique you'll find it's much like his leads - if it sounded good to him he played it, and rhythm guitar is more structured.
JRNelsonSr No
Richard B. Davis he uses his two voices at different times
I love the song played in "Blues is King". that is the best.
TREMENDO SHOW RIKARD KJELL !!!!!!!!
O MESTRE ETERNO DO BLUES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ESTE BLUES DO MESTRE BBKING NÃO CONHECIA, COMO SEMPRE SHOW !!!!!!!!!
I saw him in the sixties (in Bristol, I think). He sounded and looked the same.
Pqp! Que perfeição! Esse solo de trompete <3
That trompet player was magnificent!
do you know his name???
James Bolden
Check out the trumpet solo by his long-time band director Calvin (Pop) Owens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQfDT-PCjyI
@Derek Singleton thank you
As a professional musician this is the best rehearsed band live; I've ever seen or heard.
Agreed, so let me suggest the nicks concert for you. Just type "BB King nicks" at search engine here in youtube.
You'll love the Sax on "Never make your move too soon" and also the bass on "Better not look down".
Oct 25, 1986
Is the drummer Bernard Purdie?
Does not appear to be
I will never hear another Blues guitarist like this man.I met him back stage in Hamilton NZ.He sighned my one dollar bill.Kia pai Rawa tou haerere ana ki to Tipuna He Rangatira.Mauri Ora Kotou.
If this doesn't move you in some way...man I just don't know.
In all things holy can someone tell me where i can at least find tabs or any learning resource to learn that solo??
play a few seconds, figure out the lick, repeat
Great perfomance. Love it. ♡

There exist, for certain, seven persons in this world that I do not want to be friends with as they are emotionally dead, I speak of the 7 negatives above.
Good Willie Nelson cover.
Sorry, just noticed this is a case where the cover is better than the original.
Love you Mr. BB and band. You should be on Mt. Rushmore. :)
WONDERFU!L !!!!
WOW! How good was that?
Great blues,I enjoyed it very much.
@***** I didn't know that about Montreal. Guess I'll have to add it to my music cities roadtrip itinerary! What's the scene like these days?
bb will always be my fav above all the others..
mine also
GOOD, VERY GOOD!!
I love this cover by BB
Even by BB's standards, this is absolutely phenomenal.
agreed, and its the last parrt of his career that was jazzy
Stunning !!
Amazing guitar solo work here. How can 4 people not love this song ???
so true my friend sooooo fucking true
They're bieber fans 😂
The greatest performer...........ever.
BEAUTYFUL !!!!!
i really enjoyed this!
I really wish that I had the chance to see BB play in his prime. He is a blues treasure!
Does anyone know if this was ever part of a live album? This could be the best bb has ever played, whilst the copy of night life I do have is his singing at its best (blues is king album)
