I d been workin at forgettin since you said goodbye
Lookin for some good timesthe best money can buy.
But it s a bad investmentthere s no long term dividends.
You can t buy happiness or heal a heart theat just won t mend.

Chorus:
I never thought that I d be missin you this way.
I should ve paid you more attentionbut now it s too late.
You can buy a night out on the townyou 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 sillybut 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 pocketbook is emptybut 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 lessonI can t justify the cost.
I tried buying off your memorybut it s all in vain because

Repeat Chorus:

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.
