NRBQ

NRBQ is an American rock band founded in 1967. It is known for its live performances, containing a high degree of spontaneity and levity, and blending rock, pop, jazz, blues and Tin Pan Alley styles. Its best known line-up is the 1974–1994 quartet of pianist Terry Adams, bassist Joey Spampinato, guitarist Al Anderson, and drummer Tom Ardolino. 2004 saw the beginning of a several-year long hiatus interrupted only by a few reunion performances, while band members pursued other projects. In 2011, the band returned with keyboardist Adams as the only member from any previous lineup. more »

Every day about sunset
There comes the king of roulette
He'll cash his great big stacks
every time that he bets
but last night feeling extra fine 
he put the whole mess down on red
it came up double-zero
his luck has just run dead

aint no sea cant be crossed
aint no ship that cant be lost
aint no horse that cant be rode
aint a man that cant be thrown

well, Elvin said to Melvin 
"you never gonna get that girl, 
she's too high class; she's beautiful; 
she's a woman of the world,"
Then Melvin learned to dance
And that gal she gave him a wink
Then Melvin turned to Elvin, 
he said: "i tell you this is what i think:"

there's no sea cant be crossed
aint no ship that cant be lost
aint no horse that cant be rode
aint no man that cant be thrown

oohh 
ohh
ohh
oooh...

I'll tell you all about Brenda
That girl, she could really paint
But all the critics told her
"where it is, you aint"
She heard her work to the people
and it was like they couldnt even see 'em 
but things can change and you know one day
they'll be in a big museum

there's no sea cant be crossed
aint no ship that cant be lost
aint no horse that cant be rode
aint no man that cant be thrown

you know a man cant live on bread alone
He's gotta have something to spin it on

I heard about a group with too much cash
they came up with something really rash
they had the money; they had the power
to build themselves a great big tower

you know, they never got to heaven
you know something, it went wrong
but check it out you can still hear em
hear em babble on
babble on
babble babble babble 
ON

there's no sea cant be crossed
aint no ship that cant be lost
aint no horse that cant be rode
aint no man that cant be thrown
