<< Never Make Your Move Too Soon >>
|
--- B.B. King
|
|
Three days of snow in Birmingham
|
Thought you would wonder where I am
|
Rang our number all night long
|
It's no comfort on the telephone
|
Ran out and caught a midnight flight
|
Thought a little love would make everything all right
|
The landlord said, "You moved away"
|
And left me all your bills to pay"
|
Look out baby, you might have made your move too soon
|
|
Left me with a Keno card
|
This life in Vegas sure ain't hard
|
I ran it up to about fifty grand
|
Cashed it in and held it in my hand
|
That kind of word can get around
|
And make a lost love come up found
|
I hear you knocking baby at my door
|
But you know you ain't living here no more
|
It's too bad
|
I think you made your move too soon
|
|
I've been from Spain to Tokyo
|
From Africa to Ohio
|
I never tried to make the news
|
I'm just a man who plays the blues
|
I take my lovin' everywhere
|
I came back, and they still care you know
|
One love ahead
|
One love behind
|
One in my arms and one on my mind
|
It's one thing baby
|
I never make my move too soon
|
|
I've been from Spain to Tokyo
|
From Africa to Ohio
|
I never tried to make the news
|
I'm just a man who plays the blues
|
I take my lovin' everywhere
|
I come back, you know they still all care
|
One love ahead and one behind
|
One in my arms you know, one on my mind
|
And it's one thing people
|
I never make my move too soon
|
