"Bright Lights, Big City" lyrics
(originally by Jimmy Reed)
Bright lights big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
I tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word I said
So long, pretty baby
You're gonna need my help, someday
So long, pretty baby
You're gonna need my help, someday
Gonna wish you'd had a-listened
Somethin' that I have to say
Go on, pretty baby
An' knock yourself out
Go ahead, pretty baby
You don't know what love is all about
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word I said
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word I said
Go ahead, pretty baby
A-knock yourself out
Go on, pretty baby
You don't know what love is all about
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
Went to my baby's head
Tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word, that I said
Bright lights, a-big city went to my, baby's head
Aah, she warned me
Now listen, to what I heard
My mama said
A-she want me
Right there, home in bed
Right here...
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
I tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word I said
So long, pretty baby
You're gonna need my help, someday
So long, pretty baby
You're gonna need my help, someday
Gonna wish you'd had a-listened
Somethin' that I have to say
Go on, pretty baby
An' knock yourself out
Go ahead, pretty baby
You don't know what love is all about
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word I said
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word I said
Go ahead, pretty baby
A-knock yourself out
Go on, pretty baby
You don't know what love is all about
Bright lights, big city
A-went to my baby's head
Bright lights, big city
Went to my baby's head
Tried to tell her, mama
But she wouldn't hear a word, that I said
Bright lights, a-big city went to my, baby's head
Aah, she warned me
Now listen, to what I heard
My mama said
A-she want me
Right there, home in bed
Right here...
