Mean Old World Lyrics - Blues On The Bayou - B.b. King

One, two, three, four 

This is a mean old world 

Baby to live in all by yourself 

I said a mean, mean, mean old world 

To live in all by yourself 

When you can't get the woman you're loving 

Because she's loving somebody else 

I smile to keep from worrying 

And I laugh just to keep from crying 

Smile to keep from worrying 

Laugh just to keep from crying 

Trying to keep the public from knowing 

Baby what I've got on my mind

Someday baby 

When the blood runs cold in my veins 

Someday baby 

When the blood runs cold in my veins 

You won't be able to mistreat me no more then baby 

'Cause my heart won't feel no pain
