My Guitar Sings The Blues - B.B. King

I asked my baby to come down

And help me go my bail

But the woman left me stranded

People Oh in the county jail

That’s why that’s why that’s

Why my guitar sings the Blues

I’m gonna tell everybody the news

She makes my guitar sing the Blues…

I saw a fella come to her door

And she answered it with a smile

It almost blew my mind people

When she pulled down the blind

Oh that’s why that’s why you

Hear my guitar singin' the Blues

I really paid my dues people

Oh the girl makes my guitar sing the Blues…

You know I was hopin' my baby would

Come back and sing a different tune

But when I had a chance to ask her

People she said No no time soon

That’s why that’s why that’s why you

Hear my guitar singin' the Blues

Sometimes I may sound a little confused

She makes my guitar sing the Blues…

You know I thought I’d call my baby

Because I missed her so much since she been gone

Just when I thought she’d say yeah!

They disconnected my telephone

Oh That’s why that’s why that’s

Why you hear my guitar singin' the Blues

Gonna tell everybody the news

She makes my guitar sing the Blues…
