You act like you don't want to listen
When I'm talking to you
You think you ought to do, baby
Anything you want to do
You've got to be crazy, baby
Just got to be out of your mind
As long as I'm paying the bills
I'm paying the cost to be the boss
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 working, baby
And paying all the bills
I don't want no mouth from you
About the way that I'm supposed to live
Now that you've got me
You act like you're ashamed
You don't act like my baby
You just use my name
But I tell you I'm going to count my money
And I don't want no back talk
If you don't like what I'm doing, baby
Pick up your things and walk

Keith soloed with me. I think Ronnie played some too, but Keith was the one that cut me up... and he was not drinking at all that day. He was himself, a beautiful man and a hell of a guitar player. And that's Mick playing the harmonica as well. He was great. We had a good time - it was like an old homecoming, friends getting together.
(Mick) was playing harp with B. B. King, and
he got the nod from B. B.
