You Can't Buy Your Way Out Of The Blues Lyrics

I've 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 that just won't mend

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-sinin'
But your money's all you lose
Loveluck 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 pocket book 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-price lesson, I can't justify the cost
I tried buyin' 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-sinin'
But your money's all you lose
Loveluck just can't be bought and paid for and that's the truth
No, you can't buy your way out of the blues

Loveluck just can't be bought and paid for and that's the truth
No, you can't buy your way out of the blues
