Bet On The Blues

Five hundred will buy you a stack

Bet it on all the red or the black and you lose

Bet on the blues

You tell me you were a gambling man

Try to beat the house if you can and you lose

Bet on the blues

If you're looking to get an inside slant

If you're looking for something so good you can't refuse

Bet on the blues

Find a man who thinks he's over the hump

And I'm here to tell you he's a kind of a chump you can use

Bet on the blues

Bet on the blues

Lucky old sun is shining today

Even money says you'll be paying some dues

Bet on the blues

You say you found your lady fair

Eight to five says she's wearing her traveling shoes

Bet on the blues

Bet on the blues

Bet on the blues

Bet on the blues

Five hundred will buy you a stack

Bet it on the red or the black and you lose

Bet on the blues

If you're looking to get an inside slant

If you're looking for something so good you can't refuse

Bet on the blues, Bet on the blues
