That Evil Child - B.B. King

Whenever I try to hold my baby

She just stand there for a while

No matter how I try to please that woman

She won’t even crack a smile

Lord, maybe you in heaven can help me

'cause this is one evil child

Oh, I say maybe, maybe somebody can help me

Because this is one evil child

When I buy her flowers or candy she just looks at me and growls

She say, «You must be guilty or have a guilty conscience buddy»

Because I’m convicted without a trial

She just grunts when I call baby, hmm one evil child

I said, «Lord, maybe you can help me, because she’s a strange and evil child»

Still, I’m tryin' to please my woman but she 'bout to drive me wild

I buy her hundred dollar dresses, people

Still she complains about the style

Won’t somebody give me a suggestion?

Help me with this evil child

Oh, maybe the Lord in heaven above can help me
