Catch a boat to England baby Maybe to Spain Whereever I have gone Whereever I've been and gone Whereever I have gone The blues are all the same
Send out for whisky baby Send out for gin Me and room service honey Me and room service babe Me and room service We're living a life of sin
When I'm not drinking baby You're on my mind When I'm not sleeping honey When I'm not sleeping honey When I'm not sleeping Well you know you find me crying
Maybe tomorrow baby Some place down the line I'll wake up older So much older honey I'll wake up older And I'll just stop all my trying
Living is a gamble baby Loving's much the same Whereever I have gone Whereever I've been and gone Whereever I have gone The blues have run the game
(repeat first verse)
Lyrics (Jackson C. Frank version)
Catch a boat to England baby Maybe to Spain Whereever I have gone Whereever I've been and gone Whereever I have gone The blues are all the same
Send out for whisky baby Send out for gin Me and room service honey Me and room service babe Me and room service, well We're living a life of sin
When I'm not drinking baby You are on my mind When I'm not sleeping honey When I ain't sleeping Mama When I'm not sleeping You know you find me crying
Try another city baby Another town Whereever I have gone Whereever I've been and gone Whereever I have gone The blues come following down
Living is a gamble baby Loving's much the same Whereever I have played Whenever I've thrown them dice Whereever I have played The blues have run the game
Maybe tomorrow honey Some place 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
