Well love is a game
Takes two to play
It's a give and take everyday
if you gamble on the take
your just asking to lose
thats the breaks ,
thats the odds of the blues

Lady luck is for horses and dice
She has no heart
She's cold as ice
If you favor the chances your just asking to lose
Thats the breaks
thats the odds of the blues

Thats the breaks
thats the odds
Lady luck never nods
Thats the breaks
thats the odds of the blues

It's a fever
It's a mean ole chill
It's a cold rain on a window sill
Call it heads
Call it tails
It's your style to choose
Thats the breaks
Thats the odds of the blues

Thats the breaks
thats the odds of the blues"
