Blues Run the Game - Jackson C. Frank

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

Send out for whisky, baby

Send out for gin

Me and room service, honey

Me and room service, baby

Me and room service

Well, we're living a life of sin

When I'm not drinking, baby

You are on my mind

When I'm not sleeping, honey

When I ain't sleeping, mama

When I'm not sleeping

You know you'll find me crying

Try another city, baby

Another town

Wherever I have gone

Wherever I've been and gone

Wherever I have gone

The blues come following down

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

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 trying

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
