LUCILLE WON’T SING NO MORE

WHEN I HEARD THE NEWS ON THAT DAY
I FELT A TEAR WELL IN MY EYES
THE BEALE STREET BLUES BOY PASSED AWAY
AN’ THOUGH I’M SADDENED BY HIS DEMISE

THE SADDEST THING OF ALL IS!

(CHORUS)

NOW THE THRILL IS GONE
LUCILLE WON’T SING NO MORE
LUCILLE WON’T SING NO MORE
NOW THE KING IS GONE
LUCILLE WON’T SING NO MORE

SHE’LL SIT THERE ALL ALONE KNOWING
THERE’S NO ONE THAT CAN FILL HIS SHOES
IT’S NOT JUST HER TEARS FLOWING
NOW THE WHOLE WORLD’S GOTTEN THE BLUES

THE SADDEST THING OF ALL IS!

(CHORUS)

(SOLO)

HE WON’T HOLD HER IN HIS HANDS
THERE’S LONELY SILENCE IN HER STRINGS

THE ONE THING THAT’S SADDEST OF ALL IS!

(CHORUS)

NOW THE THRILL IS GONE
THERE’S LONELY SILENCE IN HER STRINGS

(SPOKEN)

ONE OF THE MUSIC WORLDS TRUE LEGENDS
MAY YOU REST IN PEACE B B KING
