A Story Everybody Knows

歌詞

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, B.B." 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, B.B." And that's the story everybody knows We went to Berlin And to Stockholm too And on the Moscow Then to the Peking Zoo As far as travel, she couldn't get too much Somewhere in Oakland She let me have just a little touch And then she said "I'm late for beauty appointment, I've got a headache, And I believe I'm coming down with the flu" And that's the story everybody knows
