Blues Run The Game

Nick Drake · Family Tree [2007]

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 I'd to sing



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 like a sin



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



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



Well, maybe someday, baby, somewhere down the line

I'll wake up older, honey, so much older

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 run the game
