Paying The Cost To Be The Boss Lyrics By B B King

    break

    bb king
    you act like you don’t want to listen
    when i’m talking to you
    you think you outta do baby
    anything you wanna do
    you must be crazy baby
    you just gotta be outta your mind
    as long as i’m payin’ the bills woman
    i’m payin’ the cost to be the boss

    bb king
    i’ll drink if i want to
    and play a little poker too
    don’t you say nothing to me
    as long as i’m taking care of you
    as long as i’m workin baby
    and payin’ all the bills
    i don’t want no mouth from you
    about the way i’m supposed to live
    you must be crazy woman
    just gotta be outta your mind
    as long as i foot the bills
    i’m payin’ the cost to be the boss

    bb king
    now that you got me
    you act like you ashamed
    you don’t act like my woman
    you just usin’ my name
    i tell you i’m gonna have all the money
    and i don’t want no backtalk
    cause if you don’t like the way i’m doin’
    just pick up your things and walk
    you gotta be crazy baby
    you must be outta your mind
    as long as i’m payin’ the bills woman
    i’m payin’ the cost to be the boss
