Lyrics

Well, if you wanna play the blues
On your guitar
And you dreaming of being a star
B.B. King is watching wherever you are
So don't touch a string
Until you listen to some B.B. King
Well, sweet 16 and Caledonia too
Even Lucille gave B.B. the blues
Three o'clock in the morning
Singing his down-home blues
So don't touch a string
Until you listen to some B.B. King
Let the good times roll (mount up)
Don't matter if you're young or old
He was singing his song
Straight from his heart and soul
So don't touch a string
Until you listen to some B.B. King
Mount up on the wings of the king
(Mount up, mount up)
Mount up on the wings of the king
(Mount up, mount up)
So don't touch a string
Until you listen to some B.B. King
Written by: Christone "Kingfish" Ingram, Edwards Willard Ray, Eric O. Harper, Jerry Beach, Kenny Neal
