Merle Haggard - I'm Always On A Mountain When I Fall lyrics

rate me

Most of my life, I've almost been a winner.

I've come so close but never really won.

Just when I thought I finally made it,

I found myself back where I started from.

I hate to say I'm giving up but I believe,

Losin's just become a way of life for me.

Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all,

But I'm always on a mountain when I fall.

Then you came along and had me, had me believin',

For once in my life my luck had finally changed.

And now you say you're gonna leave me,

Seems everything I do winds up the same.

I hate to say I'm giving up but I believe,

Losin's just become a way of life for me.

Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all,

But I'm always on a mountain when I fall.

Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all,

But I'm always on a mountain when I fall.
