Blues Run the Game Songtext
von Simon & Garfunkel

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 whiskey, baby
Send out for gin
Me and room service, honey
Me and room service, babe
Me and room service, whoa
We're livin′ a life of sin

When I ain't drinkin', baby
You are on my mind
When I ain′t sleepin′, honey
When I ain't sleepin′, mama
When I ain't sleepin′, 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

Livin' is a gamble, baby
Loving'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
Someplace down the line
I′ll wake up older
So much older, mama
Wake up older
And I'll just stop all 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
