Bbm Can`t Fool The Blues Lyrics

Can`t Fool The Blues Lyrics

You can fool the landlord, so you don't pay the rent

You can fool the world and become the president

You can fool all the people some the time

You can make a million dollars and cry, "I don't have a lousy dime"



But you can't fool the blues

No, you can't fool the blues, yeah

When you're makin' all the rules, it's so hard to lose

But you can't fool the blues, oh no



You can fool the Romans into lending you an ear

Write a story in the papers believin' every smear

You can fool the rich by drivin' in a wreck

You can get up someone's nose, every time you bounce a cheque



But you can't fool the blues

No, you can't fool the blues, yeah

You can't fool the blues, it just laughs at each lie

You can't fool the blues, oh no



You can fool your brother into lending you his car

Rub up the waitress for some cocktails at the bar

You can talk some bimbo into takin' you home

You can fool the wife into thinkin' you're alone



But you can't fool the blues

Yeah, you can't fool the blues, yeah

Well, that blues chews you up and spits you right out

You can't fool the blues, oh no
