Everybody Loves A Winner

Once I had fame

Oh, I was full of pride

There were a lot of friends

Always by my side

But my fame, oh, it died

And now my friends began to hide

Everybody loves a winner

But when you lose you lose alone

Every way I turned

There was hello and a smile

I never thought that it

Would be gone after awhile

But my bankroll went down, oh

And the smiles turned to frowns

Everybody loves a winner

But when you lose you lose alone

Once I had a love

Oh but I wouldn't be true

To get back that love

Ain't nothing I wouldn't do

But I've loved and I've lost

Oh, and now I paid the cost

Everybody loves a winner

Say it again

Everybody loves a winner

But when you lose you lose alone
