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 whisky baby Send out for gin Me and room service, honey Me and room service, mama Me and room service, well We're living a life of sin When I ain't drinking, baby You are on my mind When I ain't sleeping, honey When I ain't sleeping, mama When I ain't sleeping, 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 Living is a gamble, baby Loving's much the same Wherever I have played Wherever I throw those dice Wherever I have played The blues they run the game Maybe when I'm older, baby Somewhere down the line I'll wake up older So much older, mama I'll wake up older And I'll just stop all my trying So 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
