Jackson C. Frank
Blues Run the Game
[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 the same
[Verse 2]
Go bring me whiskey, baby
Go bring me gin
Me and room service, honey
Me and room service
Me and room service, well we're living a life sin
[Verse 3]
When I'm not drinking, baby
You are on my mind
When I'm not sleeping
When I'm not sleeping
When I'm not sleeping, well you know, you'll find me crying
[Verse 4]
Try another city, baby
Some other town
Wherever I have gone
Wherever I've been and gone
Wherever I have gone, the blues run the game
[Verse 5]
Well maybe someday, baby
Somewhere down the line
I'll wake up older, honey
So much older
I'll wake up older and just stop all my trying
[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 run the game
