Lyrics Mark Lanegan

Mark Lanegan

Blues Run the Game

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, baby

Me and room service, honey

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

[*this section came from the Nick Drake site, though it was not performed by Mark

Try another city, baby

Try another 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 just stop all my trying*]

Living is a gamble baby

Loving's much the same

Where ever I have gone

Where ever I've been and gone

Where ever I have gone

The blues have run the game

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
