I was brought in this world 1962,
I didn't have much choice you see.
But by the time I was eight, I could tell it was too late,
I was already barking up the wrong tree.
When I was in school you thought I was a fool,
In trouble, Breaking all the rules.
I was absent from class, My daddy spanked my bare ass,
But I sure tried hard to be cool.
Born to lose, was what they said,
fill
You know I was better off dead.
Born to lose, you're just bad news,
You don't get no second chance.
It was a hot summer night in mid July,
A hangover and a black eye.
Your momma said I was a loser, A dead end cruiser,
And deep inside I knew that she was right.
Born to lose, was what they said,
fill
You know I was better off dead.
Born to lose, you're just bad news,
You don't get no second chance.
I tried to get myself a job Because that's the way that Things are,
wanna have nice Things and go far.
Well I'm sorry Honey, I ain't got much money
But I can sure play this here old Guitar.
As the years went on, I made a few mistakes
it was a Troublebound for this young Man.
The police knockin' at my Door, "Well he don't live here noMore,
and he's playin' in a rock 'n'Roll band."
Born to lose, was what they said,
fill
You know I was better off dead.
Born to lose, you're just bad news,
You don't get no second chance.
