It's A Mean World
B.B. King · Best Of Kent Singles 1958-71 [2004]
This is a mean old world, baby to live in all by yourself
Yes it's a mean old world, baby to live in all by yourself
Yes, you can't get the woman you love and you have
to put up with somebody else
Baby, I smile to keep from worryin' and I laugh just to keep from cryin'
Oh I smile to keep from worryin', baby and I laugh just to keep from cryin'
Well, that's to keep the public for knowin' what I got on my mind
Yes, someday baby, when the blood runs cold in my vein
Yes, someday baby, when the blood runs cold in my vein
Well, I hope You'll around by here to mistreat me baby,
'cause my heart it feel no pain
Yes it's a mean old world, baby to live in all by yourself
Yes, you can't get the woman you love and you have
to put up with somebody else
Baby, I smile to keep from worryin' and I laugh just to keep from cryin'
Oh I smile to keep from worryin', baby and I laugh just to keep from cryin'
Well, that's to keep the public for knowin' what I got on my mind
Yes, someday baby, when the blood runs cold in my vein
Yes, someday baby, when the blood runs cold in my vein
Well, I hope You'll around by here to mistreat me baby,
'cause my heart it feel no pain
