William Bell - Everybody Loves A Winner lyrics

rate me

Once I had fame<br />

Oh, I was full of pride<br />

There were a lot of friends<br />

Always by my side<br />

<br />

But my fame, oh, it died<br />

And now my friends began to hide<br />

Everybody loves a winner<br />

But when you lose you lose alone<br />

<br />

Every way I turned<br />

There was hello and a smile<br />

I never thought that it<br />

Would be gone after awhile<br />

<br />

But my bankroll went down, oh<br />

And the smiles turned to frowns<br />

Everybody loves a winner<br />

But when you lose you lose alone<br />

<br />

Once I had a love<br />

Oh but I wouldn't be true<br />

To get back that love<br />

Ain't nothing I wouldn't do<br />

<br />

But I've loved and I've lost<br />

Oh, and now I paid the cost<br />

Everybody loves a winner<br />

Say it again<br />

Everybody loves a winner<br />

But when you lose you lose alone
