John Lee Hooker — The Numbers lyrics

Lyrics

Anything in the world happen, I been playing so long
5−67, and ain’t a thing happen!
Mmm, oh Lord
Lord, Lord, have mercy! I’ve been playing triple two so long
Anything in the world happen
What in the world I’m gon' do?
Mmah, Lord, ooh
Now God knows these, now God knows these numbers
God knows these numbers killing me
Yes, yes, these numbers!
Lord, Lord, 9−64, I been playing it so long, ain’t a thing happen!
I gotta put’m down
Lord these numbers, these dog-gone numbers are killing me now
Well, well, I play 5−62, God knows, I come home in the evening
God knows, a dog-gone thing
