There Must Be A Better World Somewhere - B.B. King, Dr. John

Sometimes, I wonder just what I am fighting for

I win some battles but I always lose the war

I keep right on stumblin' in this no man’s land out there

But I know, yes, I know that there must be a better world somewhere

Flying high, some joker clips my wings

Just 'cause he gets his kicks and he’s doing those kind of things

Keep on fallin' into space, either hangin' in mid-air

But I know, yes, I know that there must be a better world somewhere

Every woman I want only wants herself

Everybody I love, loves somebody else

Yeah, every woman got a license to break my heart

And every love affair is over, before it gets a chance to start

If it ain’t here, maybe in the year after

Instead of tears, I’ll learn all about laughter

Meanwhile, I’m stuck out here, Lord knows it just ain’t fair

But I know, yes, I know that there must be a better world somewhere

Every woman I want only wants herself

Everybody I love, loves somebody else

Every woman I know got a license to break my heart

And every love affair is over before it gets a chance to start

If it ain’t here, maybe in the year after

Instead of tears, I’ll learn all about laughter

Meanwhile, I’m stuck out here, Lord knows it just ain’t fair

But I know, yes, I know, hey, I know

That there must be a better world, there sure gotta be a better world

Lord, now there must be a better world somewhere
