Eric Clapton Album

I dreamed I had a good job
And I got well paid
I blew it all at the penny arcade

A hundred dollars
On a kewpie doll
No pretty chick is gonna make me crawl

We're on a TWA to the promised land
Every woman, child and man
Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring
Don't you know you're ridin' with King

He's on a mission of mercy on a new frontier
He's gonna check us all out of here
Up to the mansion on the hill
Where you can get your prescription filled
Any kind of pills, folks

We're on a TWA to the promised land
Everybody clap your hands
Don't you girls love the way that he sings
Don't you know you're ridin' with King
Ridin' with the King
Don't you know you're ridin' with King

Tuxedo and a shiny three thirty five
(that's me)
You can see it in his face
The blues is his life
Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings
Don't you know you're ridin' with King

I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten years old
With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold
I had a guitar hanging just about waist high
And I'm gonna play this thing until the day I die

Don't you know we're ridin' with King
Don't you know we're ridin' with King
You're ridin' with me Eric, you're in good hands
You're ridin' with the blues
Don't you know you're ridin' with King
Yes yes you're ridin' with the King
I wanted to say B.B. King but you know King
Don't you know you're ridin' with King
Yes you're ridin' with King

Well, I had a woman,
She was nice, kind and loving to me in ever way.
Oh, I had a woman,
She was kind and loving to me in every way.
Oh, she used to love me
And bring my breakfast to the bed every day.
Oh, for ten long years,
She was my pride and joy.
Oh, for ten long years,
She was my pride and joy.
I used to call her my little girl.
Oh, she used to call me, she used to call me her little boy.
Oh, it`s all over baby.
You know I`m all alone.
It`s all over baby.
Babe you know I`m all alone.
It`s all over baby.
Babe you know I`m all alone.
Well, the reason you hear me singing the blues, baby,
Yeah, you know my baby`s gone, she`s gone, she`s gone.

I got the key to the highway,
Billed out and bound to go.
I`m gonna leave here running;
Walking is most too slow.
I`m going back to the border
Woman, where I`m better known.
You know you haven`t done nothing,
Drove a good man away from home.
Live verse: When the moon peeks over the mountains
I`ll be on my way.
I`m gonna roam this old highway
Until the break of day.
Oh give me one, one more kiss mama
Just before I go,
`Cause when I leave this time you know I,
I won`t be back no more.

Help the poor,
Won`t you help poor me?
I need help from you, baby,
Need it desperately.
I need you so much, I need your care,
Need all the loving, baby, you can spare.
Help the poor,
Say you will,
Say you`ll help me on.
I can`t make it no longer
In this world alone.
Baby, I`m begging with tears in my eyes
For your love, don`t you realize
I need help.
Oh baby, help poor me.
You are my inspiration,
Baby, that make me be a king,
But if you don`t come to my rescue,
I couldn`t ever be anything.
Help the poor,
Won`t you help poor me?
Have a heart, won`t you baby?
Listen to my plea.
Oh, I lost my courage till I found you.
You`ve got what it takes, baby, to pull me through.
Help the poor,
Oh baby, won`t you help poor me?

[No lyrics]

Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord.
It hurst me so bad for us to part.
But someday baby,
I ain`t gonna worry my life any more.
You`re on my mind every place I go.
How much I love you, nobody know.
Yeah, someday babe,
I ain`t gonna worry my life any more.
So many days since you went away.
I`ve had to worry both night and day.
Yeah, but someday babe,
I ain`t gonna worry my life any more.
So many nights since you`ve been gone.
I`ve been worried, grieving my life alone.
Yeah, but someday babe,
I ain`t gonna worry my life any more
So that`s my story and this is all I`ve got to say to you:
Bye, bye, baby, I don`t care what you do.
`Cause someday darling,
I won`t have to worry my life any more.
Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord.
It hurst me so bad for us to part.
Oh, but someday baby,
I ain`t gonna worry my life any more.

[No lyrics]

When my heart starts beating like a hammer
And my eyes get full of tears,
Oh, when my heart starts beating like a hammer
And my eyes get full of tears.
You know you`ve only been gone 24 hours, baby,
Oh, but it seems like, it seems like a million years.
Now if I ever mistreated you baby,
You know I didn`t mean no harm.
Oh, if I ever mistreated you baby,
God knows I didn`t mean no harm.
You know, I`m just a little country boy, baby,
And I was raised right down on the cotton farm.
Oh, you give me so much trouble, baby,
Babe, that I don`t know what to do.
Oh, you give me so much trouble, baby,
Baby, I don`t know, I don`t know what to do.
Oh, I ain`t got nothing, I ain`t got nothing now, baby,
Babe, and it`s all on, it`s all on account of you.

[No lyrics]

I`m gonna love you
Like nobody`s loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
Well I guess when you met me
That it were just one of those things
Don`t you ever bet me
Cause I`m gonna be true if you let me
Oh you`re gonna love me
Like nobody`s loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together unhappy together
Won`t that be fine
Day may be cloudy or sunny
We`re either in or we`re out of our money
I`m with you always
I`m with you rain or shine
You`re gonna love me
Like nobody`s loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together unhappy together
Won`t that be fine
Day may be cloudy or sunny
We`re in or we`re out of our money
I`m with you always
I`m with you rain or shine
Rain or shine
I`m with you always
I`m with you rain or shine
