B.B. King Lyrics

Sweet Sixteen (Version 2) Lyrics
(B.B. King / Joe Josea)

When I first met you baby, oh, you were just sweet sixteen
When I first met you baby, oh, you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then baby, oh, the sweetest thing I'd ever seen

But you wouldn't do nothing baby, you wouldn't do anything I ask you to
Yes, you wouldn't do nothing baby, you wouldn't do anything I ask you to
You know you ran away from home baby, and now you want to run away from "old B" too

You know I love you, baby, Oh loved you before I could call your name
You know I love you, baby, Oh loved you before I could call your name
Well, it seems like everything I do, baby, everything I do is in vain

Well my brother's in Vietnam, sister's down in New Orleans
Well my brother's in Vietnam, sister's down in New Orleans
Well, you know I'm having so much trouble, sometimes I wonder what in the world is going to happen to me

You know I love you and I'll do anything you tell me to
You know I love you and I'll do anything you tell me to
Well, there ain't nothing in the world, woman, that I wouldn't do for you

You can treat me mean, baby, but I''ll keep loving you just the same
You can treat me mean, baby, but I''ll keep loving you just the same
But one of these days you're going to give a lot of money, just to hear someone call my name
