Lyrics The World Is Gone Wrong - B.B. King

The World Is Gone Wrong

Strange things have happened
Like never happened before
My baby told me
I would have to go
I can’t be good no more
Like I once did before
I can’t be good no more, baby
Honey, because the world is goin' wrong
Feel bad this morning
Ain’t got no home
No use to worry
'Cause the whole world is goin' wrong
I can’t be good no more
Once like I did before
I can’t be good no more, baby
Honey, because the world is goin' wrong
I told you, baby
Right to your head
If I didn’t leave you
I would have to kill you dead
I can’t be good no more
Once like I did before
I can’t be good no more, baby
Honey, because the world is goin' wrong
If you have a woman
And she won’t be kind
Praise to the Good Lord
To get her off of your mind
I can’t be good no more
Once like I did before
I can’t be good no more, baby
'Cause the world is goin' wrong
When you’ve been good
You can’t do no more
Just tell her kindly
«There's the front door.»
I can’t be good no more
Once like I did before
I can’t be good no more, baby
Honey, 'cause the world is goin' wrong
Just pack up my suitcase
And give me my hat
I ain’t no need to ask you, love (?)
I ain’t coming back
I can’t be good no more
Honey, like I once did before
I can’t be good no more, baby
Honey, 'cause the world is goin' wrong
