"Monte Carlo Blues" lyrics

"Monte Carlo Blues"

It's a job like any others
Got a sell-by date
There's no need for you to get confused
I'm sitting here contemplating grace
With the Monte Carlo blues
Honka Willy was a gamblin' man
He would've really enjoyed all of this
Would've seemed like the promised land
But him don't know just what he missed

I'm goin' back home (Back home)
Goin' back to the states
It's good to see how the other half lives, yeah
How they get their kicks
It's all a show, this old front
But everybody here knows exactly just what they want
Rest of the world keeps on sailin' by
I've got these Monte Carlo blues, alright

Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da

I'm goin' back home (Back home)
Goin' back to the states
It's good to see how the other half lives, yeah
How they get their kicks
It's all a show, this old front
But everybody here knows exactly just what they want
Rest of the world keeps on sailin' by
I've got these Monte Carlo blues, alright

You say, "Hi"
I say, "Bye-bye"
To these Monte Carlo blues
You say, "Hi"
I say, "Bye-bye"
To these Monte Carlo blues
