If You Win The Love You Can Win The Life

You packed your things in a carpet bag Left home never looking back Rings on your fingers, paint on your toes Music wherever you go You don't fit in a small town world But I feel you are the girl for me Rings on your fingers, paint on your toes You're leavin' town where nobody knows You can win if you want If you want it you will win On your way you will see That life is more than fantasy Take my hand follow me Oh you gotta brand-new friend For your life You can win if you want If you want it you will win Oh, come on take a chance For a brand-new wild romance Take my hand for the night And your feelings will be right Hold me tight Oh darkness finds you on your own Endless highways keep on rollin' on You are miles and miles from your home But you never want to phone your home A steady job and a nice young man Your parents set your future plan Rings on your fingers, paint on your toes That's the way your story goes

If you go, they'll say you're following If you don't, then you're too good for them If you smile, you must be ignorant If you don't, what's your problem? If you're down, so ungrateful And if you're happy, why so selfish?

One more coffee One more cigarette One more morning trying to forget. If I had the chance To join your dance I wouldn't like to bet, Your game is something yet It's a shame, Ain't natural for you, Baby, it's a sin, You know you just can't win When you are in. You used to ride on buses Take a tube to camden town. Now you go by aeroplane Don't let nothing bring you down. It's a shame, Ain't natural for you, Baby, it's a sin, Don't you know you just can't win When you are in. Now the road is dark and lonely, But you got a pearl light mode. You're up in park lane now And I'm somewhere around In tottenham court road. It's a shame, Ain't natural for you, Baby, it's a sin, Don't you know you just can't win When you are in. No, you just can't win, No, you just can't win When you are in.

You Greenhorns might cruise you way From the basement at mom's To a little face-time someday With the Man and his clowns But will it last long, long(1x) Path of ambition and fields of grey But many won't clear (many won't clear) And the decisions that make grown men cry Are waiting right here And "their wings" to appear, appear (1x) [Chorus:] Keep your mouth shut 'til you get a "friend?" And only play the games you can win Play your hands close like had a glass chin Now let's begin (1x) No one gets to know the one right way Until they do the wrong ones ('til they do the wrong ones)

(What can I do you win again) The news is out all over town That you've been seen out runnin' around I know that I should leave but then I just can't go, you win again This heart of mine could never see What everybody knew but me Just trusting you was my great sin What can I do? You win again I'm sorry for your victim now 'Cause soon his head like mine will bow He'll give his heart but all in vain And someday say you win again You have no heart, you got no shame You take true love and give the blame I guess that I should not complain I love you still you won again I love you still you won again

You can't win, you can't break even And you can't get out of the game People keep sayin' things are gonna change But they look just like, they're stayin' the same You can't win, your in over your head And you only got yourself to blame You can't win Child (You can't win Child) You can't break even And you can't get out of the game You can't win, the world keeps movin' And you're standin' far behind People keep sayin', things'll get better (Just to ease your state of mind) (So you lean back, and you smoke that smoke) (And you drink your glass of wine) So you can't win, Child, you can't break even And you can't get out of the game You can't win, you can't win no way If your story stays the same (You ain't winnin') No, no (But it's nice to see you) (I'm awfully glad you came) (Better cool it 'cause it ain't about losing') And the world has got no shame You can't win, Child You can't break even You can't get out of the game You can't win, you can't break even Ain't the way it's supposed to be (You'll be spendin') No, no (Your little bit of money) While someone else rides for free, ooh (Learn your lesson) (Refuel your mind) (Before someone blows out your flame) You can't win, Child, no You can't win You can't win, Child, no You can't win You can't win, Child, no You can't win You can't win, Child, no You can't win You can't win, Child, you can't break even And you can't get out of the game You can't get out of the game You can't get out of the game, no, no

Just when the sunshines the brightest And the world looks alright, again Then the clouds fill the sky's You can't believe your eyes Sometimes you just cant win. My love never meant much to you dear Or yo you I was always a friend Oh, why did I call, You have no heart at all Sometimes you just cant win. --- Instrumental --- I can't live like this any longer Not knowing just where I stand I know I should't care But sweetheart it don't seem fair Sometimes you just cant win And then when the sunshines the brightest And the world looks alright, again The clouds fill the sky's You can't believe your eyes Sometimes you just can't win...
