I'm gonna leave this place tomorrow.
I'm gonna leave this town behind.
I'll be gone before the morning,
on the other side of the mound.


That's why I'm moving on.
I'm moving on.
I've been hanging around too long,
it's time I was moving on.


Oh, well I'm tired of the same old faces,
and I'm sick of the same old names.
I'm getting bored with the same old places,
everybody starts to look the same.


That's why I'm moving on.
I'm moving on.
I've been hanging around too long,
it's time I was moving on.


Move it for me!


I've been tryin' to settle down here,
but my feet just won't stay still.
And I've heard that the grass is greener
on the other side of the hill.


That's why I'm moving on.
I'm moving on.
I've been hanging around too long,
it's time I was moving on.


Give me one more for the go!


I'm gonna leave this town tomorrow.
I'm gonna leave this place behind.
You can bet your bottom dollar,
all my troubles will be far behind.


That's why I'm moving on.
I'm moving on.
I've been hanging around too long,
it's time I was moving on.


I've been hanging around too long,
it's time I was moving on.


Said I've been hanging around too long,
it's time I was moving on.
Get out of here!

. . .


Oh, pretty woman
sure's the rising sun.
Says all your cheap paint and powder
ain't gonna help you none.


'Cause she's a pretty woman
right down to her bone.
So you might as well
leave your skin alone.


Pretty woman,
what's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.


Oh, pretty woman,
whatcha gonna do?
You kept on foolin' around
till I got stuck on you.


So you can drop your mess
and come down off your throne,
stop using my poor heart
as just a stepping stone.


Pretty woman,
what's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.


Oh, pretty woman
that's all right for you.
Now you just go on doing
what you wanna do.


But someday when you think
that you've got it made,
you're gettin' water deep enough
so you can't wade.


Pretty woman,
what's the matter with you?
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.


Oh, pretty woman.
Oh, pretty woman.
Oh, pretty woman.
Oh, pretty woman.
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do. No!


Can't make you love me
no matter what I do. No!
Can't make you love me
no matter what I do.


Oh, pretty woman,
I just can't make you love me.
Oh, no.

. . .


You know I love you.
You know it's true.
Give you all my love, babe.
What more can I do?

Walking by myself,
I hope you'll understand.
I just want to be your lovin' man.

I love ya, yes I love you
with my heart and soul.
I wouldn't mistreat you
for my weight in gold.

You know I love you.
You know it's true.
Give you all my love, babe.
What more can I do?

Walking by myself,
I hope you'll understand.
I just want to be your lovin' man.

Here we go!
Keep on walkin'!

You know I love you.
You know it's true.
I give you all my --, babe.
What more can I do?

I'm walking by myself,
I hope you'll understand.
I just want to be your lovin' man.

I said I'm walking by myself,
I hope you'll understand.
I just want to be your lovin',
I just want to be your lovin',
I just want to be your lovin' man.
That's right.

Used to be so easy
To give my heart away
But I found that the hard way
There's a price you have to pay
I found out that love is no friend of mine
I should have known time after time

So long
it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

Used to be so easy
To fall in love again
But I found out the hard way
It's a road that leads to pain
I found that love is more than just a game
Playing to win
But to lose just the same

So long
it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

So many years since I've seen your face
You will my heart
there's an empty space
Where you used to be

So long
it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you

Oh the days come and go
There is one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you

. . .


One, two, three, four.
Let me tell you about the Texas blues.


I went down south to Dallas,
to hear those cowboys wail.
Came across that Billy Gibbons
ridin' on that ZZ trail.


I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.


Got myself in Double Trouble,
when I saw that Texas Flood.
Stevie said The Sky Is Crying,
superstition's in his blood.


I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.
How-how-how-how.


Come on!


I heard that Houston Twister.
He could run you off the tracks.
When he plays that Cold Cold Feeling,
you get the shivers down your back.


I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.
A-how-how-how-how.


Well, I'm going back to Dallas.
Won't go waitin' for no bus.
Ridin' off into the sunset.
You won't see my heels for dust.


I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
I said I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
And I just can't lose with the Texas blues.
The Texas blues.
Texas blues.
A-how-how-how-how.
A-how-how-how-how.

. . .


Yeah!
I laid down last night, too tired to wake.
I had a chill this morning, too tired to shake.
I got a good poker hand, too tired to win.
I can hear my baby knockin', too tired to let her in.


I'm tired.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm tired.
Too tired, too tired for anything.


I'm too tired to walk,
too tired to run.
I can hear my baby callin'.
Too tired, too tired,
I'm tired.
Yes, I'm tired.
I'm tired,
I'm too tired for anything.


Take over Albert, I'm too tired for this!


I'm tired of prospherity.
I'm tired of luck.
I'm sittin' on a pin,
I'm too tired to get up.


I'm tired.
I declare I'm tired.
I'm too tired,
too tired for anything.


Oh, Albert I'm tired.
You better take over Albert.
I'm too tired baby.

. . .


He was born in Mississippi 1924.
He was born in Mississippi 1924.
Left his home with no money.
He had to pay his dues,
but he knew the time was comin'
when he'd be king of the blues.
King of the blues!


Lost his heart to a woman, Lucy was her name.
Lost his heart to a woman, Lucy was her name. Yes, it was.
When he hears her sing so sweetly,
he knows he just can't lose.
When he holds her in his arms he knows that
he's the king of the blues.


He's a Hunter with a Crosscut Saw.
Born Under A Bad Sign.
Caught his baby messin' down the Laundromat.
He Almost Lost his Mind.
Yeah!


He was born in Mississippi 1924.
He was born in Indianola, Mississippi 1924. Yes, he was!
He doesn't need no jester to keep him amused.
He's got Lucy by his side,
he's making headline news.
Doesn't need no palace,
like Freddie down in Dallas.
You can call him what you like,
I call him king of the blues.


That's right, mister Albert King of the blues.
Yeah!
King of the blues.
Let me hear ya!

. . .


There is nothing I can do,
as you leave me here to cry.
There is nothing I can do,
as you leave me here to cry.
You know my love will follow you,
as the years go passing by.


Give you all that I own.
That's one thing you can't deny.
Give you all that I own.
That's one thing you can't deny.
You know my love will follow you,
as the years go passing by.


Gonna leave it up to you.
So long, so long, goodbye.
Gonna leave it up to you.
So long, so long, goodbye.
You know my love will follow you,
as the years go passing by.


Gonna leave it up to you.
So long, so long, goodbye.
Gonna leave it up to you.
So long, so long, goodbye.
You know my love will follow you,
as the years go passing by.

It's the darkest hour
of the darkest night
It's a million miles
from the morning light

Can't get no sleep
Don't know what to do
I've got those midnight blues

When the shadows fall
I feel the night closing in
There must be some reason
for this mood I'm getting in

Can't get no sleep
Don't know what to do
I've got those midnight blues

Every evening after sundown
as the light begins to fade
I feel so lone, but I just don't know
why these blues won't go away

*Guitar Solo*

Every evening after sundown
as the light begins to fade
I feel so lone, but I just don't know
why these blues won't go away

It's the darkest hour
of the darkest night
It's a million miles
to the morning light

Can't get no sleep
Don't know what to do
I've got those midnight blues

I've got those midnight blues
I've got those midnight blues
I've got those midnight blues

. . .


She's that kind of woman.
No doubt about how she feels.
She's holding promises.
Her eyes won't tell,
her lips are sealed.


And I like her like that.
She's kind of crazy.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.


Standing in the doorway
with the sunlight in her hair.
She's watching the wind blow.
You know she don't have a care.


I like her like that.
She's kind of crazy.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.


She's got to look so cool, you know what I mean.
Got the wickedest smile that I've ever seen.
I crashed my heart on the side of the street
that she once stood on.
She's that kind of woman.


I like her like that.
She's pretty amazing.
I understand why I want some more.
That kind of woman.
One look from her knocks me on the floor.
That kind of woman.


She's that kind of lady
that you meet in a dream of dreams.
Puts others in her shadow,
but you know this woman's real.


And I like her that.
She's kind of crazy.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
I think I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.


I said I know what I'm looking for.
That kind of woman.
That kind of woman.
That kind of woman.

. . .


All your lovin' is lovin'.
All your kissin' is kissin'.
All your lovin' is lovin'.
All your kissin' is kissin'.
Before I met you baby,
I never knew what I was missin'.


All your lovin' pretty baby,
that I got in store for you.
All your lovin' pretty baby,
that I got in store for you.
When I say I love you baby,
gotta say you love me too.


All your lovin' pretty baby,
that I got in store for you.
All your lovin' pretty baby,
that I got in store for you.
When I say I love you baby,
you gotta say you love me too.


All your lovin' pretty baby.
All your lovin' pretty baby.
All your lovin' pretty baby.
All your lovin' pretty baby.
Before I met you baby,
I never knew what I was missin'.


All your lovin' pretty baby.
All your lovin' pretty baby.
All your lovin' pretty baby.
All your lovin' pretty baby.
Before I met you baby,
I never knew what I was missin'.

. . .


Oh, baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around with my heart.
Baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around with my heart.
And if you don't stop messin' baby,
pretty soon we're gonna have to part.


Oh, baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around all the time.
Baby please stop messin' around.
You're messin' around all the time.
And if you don't stop messin' baby,
you're gonna be someone elses baby, not mine.


Squeeze me baby till my face turn cherry red.
Roll me so hard, I'll fall right out of bed.
Please stop messin' around.
You're messin around all the time.
If you don't stop messin' baby,
you're gonna be someone elses baby, not mine.


Squeeze me baby till my face turn cherry red.
Roll me so hard, I'm gonna fall right out of bed.
Please stop messin' around.
You're messin around all the time.
If you don't stop messin' baby,
you're gonna be someone elses baby, not mine.
Yeah!

. . .


I can't eat, I can't sleep.
Stare at the ceiling,
Countin' sheep.
Ever since you walked out
And left me with the blues.

I get angry, I get mad.
Think about before it turned so bad.
Ever since you walked out
And left me with the blues.

I never thought that it could end like this,
That you could treat me this way.
I never thought that I'd live to see
The day when you turn your back on me.

I just can't seem to think straight,
There's no way I can concentrate.
Ever since you walked out
And left me with the blues.
Play some blues.

I never thought that it could end like this,
That you would treat me this way.
I never thought that I'd live to see
The day when you turn your back on me.

I can't seem to think straight,
There's just no way I can concentrate.
Ever since you walked out
And left me with the blues.

Ever since you walked out
And left me with the blues.

Ever since you walked out
And left me with the blues, yeah.
I wanna hear some more blues.

. . .


Well, it was early one mornin',
I was walkin' down the street.
It was early one mornin',
I was walkin' down the street.
I saw my baby with another man,
Made my poor heart skip a beat.

Well, she was lookin' at him
The way that she looks at me.
She was lookin' at him
The way that she looks at me.
I was blinded by my tears,
I thought I'd never see.

Well, she's a mean cruel woman,
As cruel as a woman could be.
She's a mean cruel woman,
As cruel as a woman could be.
This time you've pushed me too far, baby,
You're gonna see the back of me.

Well, she's a mean cruel woman,
As cruel as a woman could be.
I said, she's a mean cruel woman,
As cruel as a woman could be.
This time I'm walkin' out the door,
You're gonna see the back of me.
One more time.

She's a mean cruel woman,
As cruel as a woman can be.
I said, she's a mean cruel woman,
As cruel as a woman could ever be.
This time I'm walkin' out the door,
You're gonna see the back of me.
Mean cruel woman.
