House Of Blues

(album: Searching For Simplicity - 1997)

She was tough and she was fine, like a hard tail 49
And she took me for a ride, I lost me head
Well I did not see the sign, cause her love had drove me blind
But it's too late, the lights are turning red

Well she left me next to nothing, another broken fool
Standing in the cold wind, howling at the moon
Some were born to win the game, some were born to lose
And they spend their nights inside the house of blues

I was cold and I was hungry, oh too short of money
Not too well, what the hell I'm still in pain
When this house is not a home, I know I'm not alone
Well I know just where to go when love is gone

She left me here with nothing, waiting here for something
Something I could believe in
Some were born to win the game, some were born to lose
And they live their lives every night in the house of blues

Well she left me here with nothing, another broken fool
Standing in the cold wind, howling at the moon
Some were born to win the game, some were born to lose
And they spend their nights inside the house of blues

Well some were born to win the game, some were born to lose
And they spend their nights, every night inside the house of blues
Every night, every day and every night
Well they spend their lives inside the house of blues
