Better Not Look Down

I've been around and I've seen some things
People moving faster than the speed of sound
Faster than the speeding bullet
People living like Superman, all day and all night
And I won't say if it's wrong or if it's right
I'm pretty fast myself
But I do have some advice to pass along
Right here in the words of this song
You better not look down if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
You better not look back or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving if you don't look down
An old girl friend of mine
Showed up the other day
That girl have lived in love and for love
And over love, and under love all of her life
If the arrows from Cupids bow that had
Passed through her heart had been sticking
Out of her body she would have looked like
A porcupine
And she asked me
"B. B. do you think I've lived my life all wrong?"
And I said, "The only advice I have to pass along
Is concealed in the chorus of this song"
"Girl, better not look down if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving if you don't look down"
I was walking down the street
At sunrise one morning n London, England
And there was a very large Rolls Royce Limousine
Pulling slowly along the street
And in that Rolls Royce was
The Queen of England, looking tired
Just go back from a party
And the Queen leaned out and
She said, "Aren't you B.B. King?" she said
Oh B.B., sometimes it's so hard to pull things together
Could you tell me what you think I ought to do?
And I said
"You better not look down if you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down, keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving if you don't look down"
