B.B. King - I Know What You're Putting Down Lyrics

Artist: B.B. King

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Blues

  • Songwriters: Bud Allen, Louis Jordan

There's a whole lot of talk around town
About the way you're carrying yourself
Whole lot of talk around town, woman
About the way you're carrying yourself

You're jiving everybody in town but old B., that's me
I know what you've been putting down

You got a rambling mind
Just don't wanna stay at home
You got a rambling mind, woman
You just don't wanna stay at home

You ain't got no job in town
And I know what you've been putting down

Everybody wants you, baby
Everybody but me
I said every, everybody wants you, woman
Everybody but me

You've been jiving everybody in town, baby
But I know what you've been putting down

You went out late last night
To a dinner show and a dance
You went out late last night, baby
A dinner show and a dance

You must've been a perfect clown
'Cause I know what you've been putting down

Yeah, you came home early this morning, woman
With a new hat, a new dress and a new pair of shoes
Came home early this morning, woman
With a new hat, a new dress and a new pair of shoes

You ain't been visiting your relatives in town
I know what you've been putting down
