B.B. King - Sweet Sixteen - Part 1 Lyrics






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
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You wouldn't do nothing for me, baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You know you ran away from your home, baby
And now you wanna run away from old B. too

You know I loved you, baby
I loved you before I could call your name
You know I loved you, baby
Baby I loved you, I love you before I could call your name
Well, it seems like everything I do now baby
Everything I do is in vain

My brother's in Korea, baby
My sister's down in New Orleans
Brother's in Korea baby
My sister's down in New Orleans
You know I'm having so much trouble woman
Baby, I wonder, what in the world is gonna happen to me

    All the reasons why B. B. King is the best bluesman of all time are right here in his masterpiece. Mr. King and Ms. Lucille have the best blues conversation ever recorded. All the backup band has to do is ride their soul deep groove and bear witness. And after six minutes of edge-of-your-seat blues drama, B. B. unleashes an ending so cataclysmic that it not only stops shows it stops time itself. This is the record that makes him able to do "The Thrill Is Gone" nine years later. Keep learning, 'cause this is how it's done.
