You're the Boss Songtext
von B.B. King
You're the Boss Songtext
When it comes to rocking
And natural finger popping, baby:
"You sure do swing"
And when it comes to rocking
And natural finger popping, daddy You′re the king
Baby, you've got me beat
Up and down
Inside and out and across
But in the middle of the night
When the moon is shining bright, Lord:
"You′re the boss"
Talking about dancing
And down home romancing
Daddy: "You make me scream"
Talking about dancing
And down home romancing, baby: "You're the queen"
Man, when push comes to shove
When it comes down to love:
"You're a horse"
But in the middle of the night
When the moon is shining bright:
"You′re the boss"
You′re the best of everything
You're a peach
You′re so sweet
You're a diamond
You′re the gem
You're the best of everything
Daddy: "You′re my man"
Baby: "You're my girl"
When it comes to knowing
Which way the wind is blowing, baby: "You're so wise"
And when it comes to knowing
Which way the wind is blowing
Daddy
Lord: "You take the prize"
Baby: "You′re the best"
When it comes to cooking up
Some chili sauce
Yeah, but in the middle of the night
When the moon is shining bright:
"B.B., you′re the boss
"You're the boss"
"You′re the boss"
"You're the boss"
"You′re the boss"
"Yes, you're the boss, baby"
"You pay the cost"
"Well, yes, I do, but -"
"Keep on running, you′re
Running slower than you used to
But you're still the boss"
"I'm getting a little old, baby"
"Take it easy now
Getting better looking everyday"
"Oh yeah, I know that, I know that
B.B.!"
"Yes, that′s me"
"Belongs to Brown"
Hey, hey
"Remember what I told you all
Them years, I′d catch you?"
Yeah
"You slowed down a little bit"
"Look out, I'm almost closed off"
"I′m closing in, I'm closing in"
"Come here, baby"
"Give me a little time"
"B.B. Oh, brown and beautiful"
"Yes, yes, that′s m
"I didn't make my move too soon, did I?"
"Not yet, but just take it easy
On me now"
"Is the thrill gone?"
"Not yet, baby, not yet!"
"Oh Lord, baby"
"I think that you never treated
Me mean"
"That′s why I keep coming back
For more"
"Go back to the source, baby"
"I hear you, I hear you"
"Oh baby, they didn't name you
B.B. for nothing"
"You pay the cost?"
"Yes, I do"
"And I always come back to
The boss"
"Come on to me
Come on to me"
"Baby, you're the boss"
Yes
"Always was my horse"
"Now talk to me, talk to me"
"Oh, you sure you named that
Guitar right?"
"Yes, I did"
"Should have been called "Ruth"
"I know
Lucille"
Hahahaha
Hahahaha
And natural finger popping, baby:
