Gene Chandler & Jerry Butler - You Just Can't Win (By Making The Same Mistake) lyrics
rate me(Ooh, ooh... over and over again)<br />
<br />
Oh, when am I gonna realize<br />
Can't bet my heart every time it cries<br />
The things you never expect<br />
That cause so much regret<br />
<br />
I could have been much further today<br />
If I had learned from my mistake<br />
Like a stubborn child<br />
I wouldn't use my head<br />
Remember what the old folks said<br />
<br />
Oh, you just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
Oh, Lord, you just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
<br />
I need to tell you<br />
Over and over again<br />
Hallelujah<br />
Over and over again<br />
<br />
When I think I'm over the hill<br />
Something happens to kill the will<br />
The things that I enjoy<br />
Seems always be destroyed<br />
<br />
Jerry, I bit off more than I can chew<br />
Depending on someone to see me through<br />
Mama said the blind can't lead the blind<br />
Son, always keep this in mind<br />
<br />
Oh, you just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
Say it again, you just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
<br />
Oh, no<br />
Over and over again<br />
Hallelujah<br />
Over and over again<br />
Well, well, well<br />
<br />
If a boxer telegraphs his punch<br />
Or a fly when he catches lunch<br />
The element of surprise<br />
Make a whole lot of people realize<br />
<br />
Sometimes you find that you're in a pinch<br />
Some games are won by the inch<br />
The motto of the living man is<br />
Don't make that same mistake<br />
<br />
Oh, you just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
Say it again, you just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
<br />
Hey, Lord<br />
Over and over again<br />
Hallelujah<br />
Over and over again<br />
<br />
Take it home<br />
You just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake<br />
You just can't win<br />
By making that same mistake...
