Tom Paxton - Bet on the Blues lyrics
[Tom Paxton - Bet on the Blues lyrics]
Bet it all on the red or
The black and you lose bet on the blues
They tell me you're 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 the
Kind of a chump you can use bet on the bluеs
Bet on the blues
Your sun is shining today
Evеn money says you'll be paying some dues
Bet on the blues
You found your lady fair eight to five
She's wearing her traveling shoes
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 the
Kind of a chump you can use bet on the blues
Bet on the blues
Five hundred'll buy you a stack
Bet it all on the red or
The black and you lose bet on the blues
They tell me you're a gambling man
Try to beat the house if you can and you lose
Bet on the blues bet on the blues
Bet on the blues bet on the blues
