I Can't Afford No Liquor, All I

I Gave You Seven Children, But Now You Want To Give Them Back.

Blues Purists Never Cared For Me. I Don't Worry About It. I Think If It This Way: When I Made 'three O' Clock Blues,' They Were Not There. The People Out There Made The Tune. And Blues Purists Just Wrote About It. The People Is Who I'm Trying To Satisfy.

It Seems Like I Always Had To Work Harder Than Other People. Those Nights When Everybody Else Is Asleep, And You Sit In Your Room Trying To Play Scales.

I Guess You Can Look At Me, And Tell I'm The Old Man. My Name Is Bb King.

I Always Liked The Steel Guitar. I Also Love The Guys That Play The Bottleneck. But I Could Never Do It; I Never Made It Do What I Want. So Every Time I Would Pick Up The Guitar, I'd Shake My Hand And Trill It A Bit. For Some Strange Reason My Ears Would Say To Me That Sounds Similar To What Those Guys Were Doing. I Can't Pick Up The Guitar Now Without Doing It. So That's How I Got Into Making My Sound. It Was Nothing Pretty. Just Trying To Please Myself. I Heard That Sound.
