A Story Everybody Knows (Album Version) - B.B. King

Written by：Will Jennings/Stix Hooper

Went to a party the New York style

I met a lady make a sane man wild

She said the words only her lips could say

She made me want to throw my life away

But when I asked her she said maybe tomorrow beby

And that's a story everybody knows

I took her flying out across the sea

I thought I had her I know that she had me

And when we landed it was Paris France

Seemed like a nice place for some French romance

But when I touched her she said maybe a little later beby

And that's the story everybody knows

We went to Berlin and to Stockholm too

And on to Moscow then to the Peking Zoo

As far as travel she couldn't get too much

Somewhere Oakland she let me have just a little touch

And then she said I'm late for beauty appointment

I have got a headache I think I am out a flu

And that's the story everybody knows
