Can't Fool the Blues Songtext
von BBM

You can fool the landlord so you don′t pay the rent
You can fool the girl who become the president
You can fool other people some other 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 making all the rules
It′s so hard to lose
But you can′t fool the blues, oh no


You can fool the woman into lending you a ear
Write a story in the papers prove whatever's here
You can fool the rich by driving in a wreck
You can get up someone′s nose every time you bounce a check

But you can't fool the blues
No, you can′t fool the blues, yeah
You can't fool the blues
You just laugh at each lie
You can′t fool the blues, oh no

You can fool your brother into lending you his car
Rub off the waitress for some cocktails at the bar
You can talk some bimbo into taking you home
You can fool the wife into thinking you're alone


But you can't fool the blues
No, you can′t fool the blues, yeah
Well, the blues chews you up and spits you right out
You can′t fool the blues, oh no
