B.B. King - Let Me Make You Cry A Little Longer Lyrics

Artist: B.B. King

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Blues

  • Songwriters: Will Jennings, Joe Sample

You know by now
That I've been passed through an awful lot of hands
And all I have
Is what is left from ten thousand one night stands

Sometimes I feel
Like I was there when the blues began
With this crying guitar holding me
Like a woman holds a man

Let me make you cry a little longer
Let me make you high a little longer
Oh, I want to try a little longer
Make some woman sigh a little longer

At night, sometimes
I can still feel every place I've ever been
I feel it in my music
And it all comes back again

You know I've played for city lights
And for stars above
And every note I ever play
I always play for love

Let me make you cry a little longer
Let me make you high a little longer
Oh, I want to try a little longer
Make some woman sigh a little longer
