So this guy plays The Blues in a low-key setting
Sings of his losses, his pain and regretting...
She draws her hair back away from her face
Says 'come on man, let's get out of this place'...
BB King has by now thickened his veins
So he feels no cold as outside it rains...
Still he does get a shiver of mild trepidation
As she mentions leaving and seperation...
'The Thrill Has Gone' she sings
'Boy it's long since gone away,
Though it hurts me to tell you
And it kills me to say'
...'The Thrill Has Gone'
See he knew she was gonna be a Heartbreaker
He thought he could hold her and mould her and make her...
In the rain he wonders just How Blue Can You Get?
And cannot shed the Chains n Things, so gets wet...
'The Thrill Has Gone' she sings
'Man the thrill has been and gone away,
Though it hurts me to tell you
On this Stormy Monday'
...'The Thrill Has Gone'
She runs to her Hideaway, he heads for hell
The Three O'Clock Blues man got him in some spell
You Done Lost Your Good Thing Now boy for sure
Since I Met You Baby requested no more
In a low-key setting he sings Into The Night
Thinks, he can just make her out in the light
But Come Rain Or Come Shine man she 'ain't coming back
And Sixteen Tons of love don't mean jack
'See The Thrill Has Gone' he sings
Since my baby gone away
'Darling You Know I Love You'
Just wish my baby would stay
... But The Thrill Has Gone
Just Like A Woman
And just like every broken heart
In every song...
The Thrill Has Gone.
