Blues Run the Game (Jackson C. Frank cover) Songtext
von Counting Crows

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.

Send out for whisky baby,
Send out for gin,
Me and room service honey,
Me and room service mama,
Me and room service, well,
We're living a life of sin.

When I ain′t drinking baby,
You are on my mind,
When I ain't sleeping honey,
When I ain't sleeping mama,
When I ain′t sleeping, well,
You know you′ll find me crying.


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.

Living is a gamble baby,
Loving′s much the same,
Wherever I have played,
Wherever I throw those dice,
Wherever I have played,
The blues they run the game.

Maybe when I'm older baby,
Somewhere 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.

So 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.
