Well how much blues do you use Before you use it up And how many fools take a chance Before they hit it lucky Tomorrow's want to be the day It never seem to work that way [Chorus] What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that What's up with that Everybody want a little more Than they think they got But what you might think it is, Might really not be, baby Pick it up or leave it lay It always seem to slip away [Chorus] Now how high will a river get Before it overflows And how long is the hole to China It don't really know This is what it's all about There's always gonna be a doubt [Chorus]
