Jackson C. Frank
Blues Run the Game (2001 - Remaster)
[Verse 1]
Catch a boat to England, baby, maybe to Spain
Wherever I have gone, wherever I've been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues are all the same
[Verse 2]
Send out for whiskey, baby, send out for gin
Me and room service, honey, me and room service, babe
Me and room service, well, we're living a life of sin
[Verse 3]
When I'm not drinking, baby, you are on my mind
When I'm not sleeping, honеy, when I ain't sleeping, mama
When I'm not sleeping, you know you'll find me crying
[Verse 4]
Try anothеr city, baby, another town
Wherever I have gone, wherever I've been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues come following down
[Verse 5]
Living is a gamble, baby, loving's much the same
Wherever I have played, whenever I've thrown them dice
Wherever I have played, the blues have run the game
[Verse 6]
Maybe tomorrow, honey, someplace down the line
I'll wake up older, so much older, mama
I'll wake up older and I'll just stop all my tryin'
[Outro]
Catch a boat to England, baby, maybe to Spain
Wherever I have gone, wherever I've been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues are all the same
