Текст песни Only Getting Second Best - Freddie King

Years past by... And I'm marking my time
Waiting for the day... That I could call you mine
It's lonely when you're on your own... And you have no happiness
Which way you turn... You feel like a drowning man

I'm getting second best baby,
And that's what hurts me so
You know I pray for number one
And I let you go

Like the blind lead the blind baby... And a fool like no fool
In your own words you win... I didn't play to the rule
They say I can't have my life... And they will bring you love
Well, I don't know about that babe... Bu
T look, at all the bad luck that got stuck

I'm getting second best baby,
And that's what hurts me so
You know I pray for number one
And I let you go, oh babe

I'm getting second best baby,
And that's what hurts me so
I'll say I pray for number one
And I let you go, hey hey babe
