Don't Answer The Door - Live (1969/Village Gate/New York )
Ladies and gentlemen it's blues time
We like for you to prepare yourself
Get yourself together, get yourself in the frame of minds
Today the king that is the king of the blues
Mr. B.B King
Thank you, thank you very much, thank you
Woman don't answer the door
Hangin' around my house when I'm not home
I don't want a soul, baby
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, woman
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
I don't want your sister comin' by
Because the little girl, she talk too much
If she just have to come by to see us
Tell her to meet us Sunday, Sunday, down at the church
I don't want a soul
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, woman
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
Your mother might wanna visit us
But you tell your mother I get home about the break a day
And you know that's too late to visit anybody
So, tell you mother please, please, please stay away
I don't want a soul, mama
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, woman
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
You might feel a little sick, baby
And you know you're home all alone
I don't want the doctor at my house
So you just suffer, suffer, suffer till I get home
I don't want a soul, woman
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, baby
Baby, when you're home and you're all alone
Yeah!
Thank you, thank you
We like for you to prepare yourself
Get yourself together, get yourself in the frame of minds
Today the king that is the king of the blues
Mr. B.B King
Thank you, thank you very much, thank you
Woman don't answer the door
Hangin' around my house when I'm not home
I don't want a soul, baby
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, woman
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
I don't want your sister comin' by
Because the little girl, she talk too much
If she just have to come by to see us
Tell her to meet us Sunday, Sunday, down at the church
I don't want a soul
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, woman
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
Your mother might wanna visit us
But you tell your mother I get home about the break a day
And you know that's too late to visit anybody
So, tell you mother please, please, please stay away
I don't want a soul, mama
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, woman
Oh, when you're home and you know you're all alone
You might feel a little sick, baby
And you know you're home all alone
I don't want the doctor at my house
So you just suffer, suffer, suffer till I get home
I don't want a soul, woman
Hangin' around my house when I'm not at home
I don't want you to open the door for nobody, baby
Baby, when you're home and you're all alone
Yeah!
Thank you, thank you
