B.B. King - Confessin' the Blues lyrics



Yes, here I stand before you
With my heart in my hand
I want you to read it, baby
Hopin' that you understand

And I said baby, honey, please, don't dog me around
Because I'd rather love you, woman
Honey, than anyone else I know in town

Because you're so nice and lovin'
And have such pleasin' ways
If you take me to your heart
I'll be there the rest of my days

I said, baby, that's the truth
Honey, I declare I wouldn't lie
Because I'd rather love you, baby
If I don't I swear I hope to die

I said, baby, don't you want a man like me?
Can you hear me, woman
Don't you want a man like me?
You just think, you just think about our future, baby
And you forget about your used to be
Hey now

Yes! alright!

Well, my days are long and dreary
And the sun refuse to shine
I will never be blue and lonely
Woman, if I knew that you were mine

That's the truth, baby
You can make everything alright
Can I see you today, baby
Or will it have to be tomorrow night?

Yes, this is my confession, baby
And I'm thrilled by all your charms
It seems that I'm in heaven
When I hold you in my arms

Baby, woman, you can have me for yourself
You know I was meant for you, baby
And I don't want nobody else, no, I don't
Yeah!

Hey, you told me that you loved me, woman
You meant it from the start
You said that we would be together
Until death do us apart

But you lied to me, baby
Yes, and you called it only fun
Now how can I be happy, woman
With all the wrong you've done?

Now must I keep confessin', baby
When you know just where I stand
I don't wanna lose you, woman
Wanna keep you if I can

But baby, babe, you know
I've never had a break
You're my one and only woman
You're all I have at stake
Now listen to me .
