Better Not Look Down Lyrics - Singles - King Bb

I've been around and I've seen some things 

People moving faster than the speed of sound 

Faster than the speeding bullet 

People living like Superman 

All day and all night 

And I won't say if it's wrong or if it's right 

I'm pretty fast myself 

But I do have some advice to pass along 

Along in the chorus of this song 

Better not look down, 

if you want to keep on flying 

Put the hammer down, 

keep it full speed ahead 

Better not look back, 

or you might just wind up crying 

You can keep it moving, 

if you don't look down 

An old girl friend of mine showed up the other day 

That girl have lived in love and for love, 

and over love, and under love all her life 

If the arrows from cupid's bow that had 

passed through her heart had been sticking 

Out of her body she would have looked like a porcupine, 

And she asked me "B.B. do you think I've lived my life all wrong?" 

And I said: "The only advice I have to pass 

along in the chorus of this song", girl 

Better not look down, 

if you want to keep on flying 

Put the hammer down, 

keep it full speed ahead 

Better not look back, 

or you might just wind up crying 

You can keep it moving, 

if you don't look down 

I was walking down the street at sunrise one morning, in London, England 

And there was a very large Rolls Royce limousine, 

pulling slowly along the street 

And in that Rolls Royce was the queen of England, looking tired 

Just go back from a party, and the queen leaned out and, 

she said: "Aren't you B.B. King?" 

She said: "Oh B.B., sometimes it's so hard to pull things together. 

Could you tell me what you think I ought to do?" 

And I said: 

Better not look down, 

if you want to keep on flying 

Put the hammer down, 

keep it full speed ahead 

Better not look back, 

or you might just wind up crying 

You can keep it moving, 

if you don't look down 

Better not look down, 

if you want to keep on flying 

Put the hammer down, 

keep it full speed ahead 

Better not look back, 

or you might just wind up crying 

You can keep it moving, 

if you don't look down
