President Obama Sings 'Sweet Home Chicago' With B.B. King at White House

ABC News:

President Obama showed off his vocal abilities once again tonight, singing a few lines of “Sweet Home Chicago” during the finale of a blues concert at the White House.

“We were trying to get you to help us sing that because I heard you singing Al Green,” blues great Buddy Guy urged the president from the stage, referring to Obama’s infamous performance at the Apollo last month when he sang a few lines of “Let’s Stay Together.”

“So you’ve started something. You’ve got to keep it up,” Guy said.

A reluctant Obama ultimately obliged.

“Come on… Baby don’t you want to go,” Obama sang, mic in hand, as the crowd swayed around him and the first lady cheered him on. “Oh come on, baby don’t you want to go.”

The president then held the mic up briefly for the legendary B.B. King to sing the line “… that same old place,” before Obama brought it home “… sweet home Chicago.”
