Interpret:
B.B. King
Album:
P/R
You act like you to don't wanna listen, 
when I'm talking to you 
You think you outta be my baby, 
anything you wanna do 


You must be crazy, baby, 
you just gotta be out of your mind 
As long as payin' I'm the bills, woman, 
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss 


I'll drink if I wanna, 
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 payin' all the bills 
I don't want no mouth from you, 
about the way I'm supposed to leave 


You must be crazy, woman, 
you just gotta be out of your mind 
As long as I'm footin' the bills, 
I'm paying the cost to be the boss 


Now that you got me, 
you act like you are a shame 
You don't act like my woman, 
you just using my name 


I tell you I'll gonna handle all the money, 
and I don't wanna no back talk 
'Cause if you don't like the way I'm doing, 
just pick up your things and walk 


You must be crazy baby, 
you just gotta be out of your mind 
As long as paying the bills, 
I'm paying the cost to be the boss
