LYRICS:

Members only, it's a private party
Need no money to qualify
Don't bring your check book, bring your broken heart
'Cause it's members only tonight
Say you lost woman, say you lost your man
You got a lot of problems all in your life
They're havin' a party for the broken hearted
'Cause it's members only tonight
Don't tell momma, don't tell daddy, red or yellow, black or white
They're having a party, for the sad and lonely
'Cause it's members only tonight

B.B. King - Better Not Look Down (1979) Live

"Better Not Look Down"
Album: Take it Home (1979 MCA)

SINGLE:



LYRICS:

I've been around and I've seen some things
People moving faster than the speed of sound
Faster than the speeding bullet
People living like Superman
All day and all night
And I won't say if it's wrong or if it's right
I'm pretty fast myself
But I do have some advice to pass along
Along in the chorus of this song
Better not look down, if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back, or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving, if you don't look down
An old girl friend of mine showed up the other day
That girl have lived in love and for love,
And over love, and under love all her life
If the arrows from cupid's bow that had
Passed through her heart had been sticking
Out of her body she would have looked like a porcupine,
And she asked me "B.B. do you think I've lived my life all wrong?"
And I said: "The only advice I have to pass
Along in the chorus of this song", girl
Better not look down, if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back, or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving, if you don't look down
I was walking down the street at sunrise one morning, in London, England
And there was a very large Rolls Royce limousine,
Pulling slowly along the street
And in that Rolls Royce was the queen of England, looking tired
Just go back from a party, and the queen leaned out and,
She said: "Aren't you B.B. King?"
She said: "Oh B.B., sometimes it's so hard to pull things together.
Could you tell me what you think I ought to do?"
And I said:
Better not look down, if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back, or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving, if you don't look down
Better not look down, if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back, or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving, if you don't look down
