B.B. King - What Can I Do (Just Sing The Blues) Lyrics
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
Well, I just sing the blues
'Cause that's the only thing I know to do
Well, some people may be wrong sometimes
But they can't be wrong all the time
Like they say a cat has nine lives
Nine loves has the woman of mine
What can I do
Yes, I just sing the blues
Well, I just sing the blues
Well, the women are funny these days
They do wrong in so many ways
They'll have a man twiddling his fingers
Or either drinking his life away
What can I do
Yes, I just sing the blues
Well, I just sing the blues
'Cause that's the only thing I know to do

No place to sleep, no place to eat. The blues will sustain you more than you can know.
That is the Conservative Party policy.

Play this song at my funeral😂NO PREACHING 😆
Love this song my favorite by (MR. BB KING) Rest In Heaven
Everybody wants to know, why i drink the booze ..... :)
Before my Grandson could even talk well I would sing this line to him and it got to the point that when he would come over to visit he would pick up his pretend guitar and sing"everybody know"
What a legend - played to my folks in the 40’s and my brother in the 50’s & this reached me in the 60’s & 70’s! Bad Bad B🎶
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
They brought me over on a ship
Men were standing over me
And a lot more with a whip
And everybody wanna know
Why I sing the blues
Well, I've been around a long time
Mm, I've really paid my dues
I've laid in a ghetto flat
Cold and numb
I heard the rats tell the bedbugs
To give the roaches some
Everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
Yes, I've been around a long time
People, I've paid my dues
I stood in line
Down at the County Hall
I heard a man say, "We're gonna build
Some new apartments for y'all"
And everybody wanna know
Yes, they wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
Yes, I've been around a long, long time
Yes, I've really, really paid my dues
Now I'm gonna play Lucille
My kid's gonna grow up
Gonna grow up to be a fool
'Cause they ain't got no more room
No more room for him in school
And everybody wanna know
Everybody wanna know
Why I'm singing the blues
I say I've been around a long time
Yes, I've really paid some dues
Yeah, you know the company told me
Guess you're born to lose
Everybody around me, people
It seems like everybody got the blues
But I had 'em a long time
I've really, really paid my dues
You know I ain't ashamed of it, people
I just love to sing my blues
I walk through the cities, people
On my bare feet
I had a fill of catfish and chitterlings
Up and down Beal Street
You know I'm singing the blues
Yes, I really
I just have to sing my blues
I've been around a long time
People, I've really, really paid my dues
Now Father Time is catching up with me
Gone is my youth
I look in the mirror everyday
And let it tell me the truth
I'm singing the blues
Mm, I just have to sing the blues
I've been around a long time
Yes, yes, I've really paid some dues
Yeah, they told me everything
Would be better out in the country
Everything was fine
I caught me a bus uptown, baby
And every people, all the people
Got the same trouble as mine
I got the blues, huh huh
I say I've been around a long time
I've really paid some dues
One more time, fellows!
Blind man on the corner
Begging for a dime
The rollers come and caught him
And throw him in the jail for a crime
I got the blues
Mm, I'm singing my blues
I've been around a long time
Mm, I've really paid some dues
Can we do just one more?
Oh I thought I'd go down to the welfare
To get myself some grits and stuff
But a lady stand up and she said
"You haven't been around long enough"
That's why I got the blues
Mm, the blues
I say, I've been around a long time
I've really, really paid my dues
Fellows, tell them one more time
Ha, ha, ha That's all right, fellows
Yeah!
Gots ta dig dat bass!!!!!
Love From. And man that Bass'..wow
RIP chuck berry legend of rock and roll
My. Popa. Showed. Miss. Me. And. Bless. Me. With. My. Inhertace. Etc
Remember listening to this at Summer sessions for football at Saint Pat's in Chicago as a soph.
Blind man on a corner begging for a dime = robots came and put him in a darker place.. Blues Done Murdered Me::::::......robots rollers gumballs fuzz pigs
A masterpiece from the Master. One could learn drumming, guitar playing, bass plаying, singing out of this... What a genius...
The King. I was born and raised on B.B. nobody can play a guitar like him, his own style. I know it anywhere. No one can imitate.
B. B. The King...
Anyone out there want to ride with me to bringe the poor people here,one or two, grive a corvette
Sang it BB!
this song is too true that'' s why I got the blues.
birth of the blues
2:27 papoooo
الشطرنج اللعب الان.
ان تفقد الحصان و الفارس في مقابل الحصن؟
او ان الملكة في مقابل بيدق؟
نحن لا نعرف لعب الشطرنج أمام صاحب رقعة الشطرنج.
صاحب رقعة الشطرنج فلألعاب الدور المنوط بك.
و كفى.
ما نطلب منك الا الحق.
yea copy that
وا اسم ط
واسك مي مرة أخرى.
السياسة فعل نبيل من جميع الإنسانية من اجل جميع الإنسانة
و كانا نلعب الشطرنج،،،؟.
ان نلعب الشطرنج يوما سعيظا، سعيد
حرية الكلافيي.
L'EBERTE
LIBRE ĎE MON CLAVIER
LIBRE CE QUE ON DIT.
PILE OÙ FACE DANS UN JEU.
ET NON POUR UNE FACE DE CAMÉLÉON .
☺☺☺
JUSTICE IS A GOLD JUSTICE, LOGICAL RULES ARE THE WAYS FOR GATEWAYS TO BE IN OURS.
FOR ONE DOLLAR MORE IN A BANK, IT'S A NO WAY.
TO BE OR NOT TO BE, IT'S THE DEVICE
EVREY ONE WHY I AM CRAZY FOR ONE BIG MOROCCO, I HAVE A GENETIC EMPIRE, A EMPIREIEL MOROCCAN, OUR BIG MOROCCO. JUST.
My favorite blues song other than life ain't nothing but a party. R.i.p the king of blues and rock n roll
Long live the KING GOD on the strings
BB the greastest love BB like everyone else
