When You Lose Blues Lyrics

You lose all your money gambling

Pretty soon your old lady won't be far behind

When you lose your money gambling

Sure enough your old lady won't be too far behind

That's when the Blues comes looking for ya

You'll soon find you've got yourself a troubled mind

When you've drunk up the last of your shine

And the Sheriff is looking for you high and low

When you've drunk the last of your shine

Law is searching for you high and low

That's when the Blues finds a way of showing

There's a better place waiting for you 6 feet below

Then you get so old and lonely

You're turning deaf and eyes go blind

Then you realise you're so old and lonely

You're turning deaf and eyes going blind

That's when the Blues reminds you

Fool's gold is the only treasure you'll ever find
