Blues Run The Game
by Jackson C. Frank
(c) 1965 Pattern Music Ltd.

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 run the game / The blues are all the same

Send out for whiskey baby
Send out for gin
Me and room service honey
Me and room service babe
Me and room service
We'll live a life of sin / We're living a life of sin

When I ain't drinkin' baby
You're on my mind
When I ain't sleepin' honey
When I ain't sleepin' mama
When I ain't sleepin'
Well you'll know you'll find me cryin'

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 run the game

Livin' is a gamble baby
Lovin's much the same
Wherever I have played
Wherever I throw those dice
Wherever I have played
The blues run the game

Maybe when I'm older baby
Some place down the line
I'll wake up older
So much older mama
Wake up older
I'll stop on my tryin'

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
