Píseň: Bet On The Blues

Interpret:
John Denver
Album:
I Want To Live
Five hundred will buy you a stack 
 Bet it on all the red or the black and you lose 
 Bet on the blues 
 You tell me you were 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 a kind of a chump you can use 
 Bet on the blues 
 Bet on the blues 
 Lucky old sun is shining today 
 Even money says you'll be paying some dues 
 Bet on the blues 
 You say you found your lady fair 
 Eight to five says she's wearing her traveling shoes 
 Bet on the blues 
 Bet on the blues 
 Bet on the blues 
 Bet on the blues 
 Five hundred will buy you a stack 
 Bet it on the red or the black 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, Bet on the blues
