(Jack Bruce/Gary Moore/Kip Hanrahan)

You can fool the landlord sp 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
|
You can't fool the blues
|
When you're makin' all the rules it's so hard to lose
|
You can't fool the blues, oh no.
|
You can fool the Romans into lending you an ear
|
Write a story in the papers believing every smear
|
You can fool the rich by driving around 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
|
You can't fool the blues it just laughs at each lie
|
Can't fool the blues, oh no.
|
You can fool your brother into lending you his car
|
Rub up the waitress for some coctails 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
|
You can't fool the blues
|
That blues chews you up and spits you right out
|
You can't fool the blues, oh no.
