You Can't Buy Your Way Out Of The Blues

I'd been workin' at forgettin'
Since you said goodbye,
Lookin' for some good times,
The best money can buy
But it's a bad investment,
There's no long term dividends
You can't buy happiness
Or heal a heart theat just won't mend

I never thought that I'd be missin' you this way
I should've paid you more attention,
But now it's too late
You can buy a night out on the town,
You can buy a loveboat cruise,
But you can't buy your way out of the blues

No, you can't buy your way out of the blues
You can spend your fool self silly,
But your money's all you lose
Love luck just can't be
Bought and paid for and that's the truth
No, you can't buy your way out of the blues

My pocketbook is empty,
But I'm still feelin' bad
I might as well admit it
You're the last good time I had
It's been a high- priced lesson,
I can't justify the cost
I tried buying off your memory,
But it's all in vain because

I never thought that I'd be missin' you this way
I should've paid you more attention,
But now it's too late
You can buy a night out on the town,
You can buy a loveboat cruise,
But you can't buy your way out of the blues

No, you can't buy your way out of the blues
You can spend your fool self silly,
But your money's all you lose
Love luck just can't be
Bought and paid for and that's the truth
No, you can't buy your way out of the blues

Love luck just can't be bought
And paid for and that's the truth
No. you can't buy your way out of the blues
