Blind Blake lyrics

Policy Blues blues lyrics

Numbers, numbers 'bout to drive me mad
Numbers, numbers 'bout to drive me mad
Thinkin' about the money that i should have had

I dreamed last night the woman i loved was dead
I dreamed last night the woman i loved was dead
If i'd have played the Dead Row i'd have come out ahead

I acted the fool and played on 3, 6, 9
I act' the fool and played on 3, 6, 9
Lost my money and that gal of mine

I played on Clearing-House, couldn't make the grade
I played on Clearing-House, couldn't make the grade
Lord, think of the money that i should have made

I begged my baby to let me in her door
I begged my baby let me in her door
Wanted to put my 25, 50, 75 in her 7, 17, 24

I want 15, 50, and 51
I want 15, 50, and 51
I'm gon' keep playin' policy 'til some good luck come
