The Loser Gets to Win
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
I should have known that it would be too good to last
You took my colours and he nailed them to his mast
And sailed on past
It soon be happens to me every way I turn
And if it's true that pain's the only way to learn
I'm learning fast
So here I go again back to where I started
Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed and I don't get downhearted
Because every now and then the loser gets to win
Every time I missed a ride that's come along
My Mister Right keeps turning into Mister Wrong
It's the same old song
Something happens to me every time around
But there's no way I'm gonna let it get me down
I'll just keep right on
So here I go again back to where I started
Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed and I don't get downhearted
Because every now and then the loser gets to win
Well, I believe that my ship is coming in
The loser gets to win
Ooh, ooh, yeah
Well, I believe that my ship is coming in
The loser gets to win
Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed, and I don't get downhearted
Because every now and then the loser gets to win
Here I go again back to where I started
Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed and I don't get downhearted
Because every now and then the loser gets to win
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
The loser gets to win
Here I go again
Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed and I don't get downhearted
I should have known that it would be too good to last
You took my colours and he nailed them to his mast
And sailed on past
It soon be happens to me every way I turn
And if it's true that pain's the only way to learn
I'm learning fast
So here I go again back to where I started
Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed and I don't get downhearted
Because every now and then the loser gets to win

Nine times out of ten, I'll take it on the chin
But I don't get depressed and I don't get downhearted
