Beth Hart and Jeff Beck – “I’d Rather Go Blind” – Live
Beth Hart and Jeff Beck perform “I’d Rather Go Blind” and Bonnie Raitt performs “Sweet Home Chicago” in tribute to Buddy Guy at the 2012 Kennedy Center Honors!
One of the best performances at the Kennedy Center Honors! This is totally awesome! You can see the deep admiration in Buddy’s eyes!
Lyrics:
Something told me it was over
When I saw you and her talkin’
Something deep down in my soul said, ‘Cry, girl’
When I saw you and that girl walkin’ around
Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Then to see you walk away from me, child, no
Whoo, so you see, I love you so much
That I don’t wanna watch you leave me, baby
Most of all, I just don’t, I just don’t wanna be free, no
Whoo, whoo, I was just, I was just, I was just
Sittin here thinkin’, of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now, baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah
Whoo and baby, baby, I’d rather, I’d rather be blind, boy
Then to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Whoo, baby, baby, baby, I’d rather be blind…
