Dave Van Ronk
Losers
[Verse 1]
I blew my wad playin' seven card stud
I was playin' for money, they was playin' for blood
On the way back home the big winner got mugged
Now he's just another loser like me

[Chorus]
Losers, losers
I got took for my whosis
That shark got crowned, now he's grown bin bound
He's just another loser like me

[Verse 2]
See that kid sittin' back of the bar
Pickin' up a storm on a Martin guitar
That poor fool thinks he's gonna be a star
He's just another loser like me

[Chorus]
Losers, losers
Some are raggers, some are bluesers
Makin' disco sounds in a HoJo lounge
With a bunch of other losers like me

[Verse 3]
Well, love has busted up this cat for sure
He's cryin' like a baby at his baby's door
That poor fool don't know what he's cryin' for
He's just another loser like me
[Chorus]
Losers, losers
Can't say no to cruisers
When she says when he'll be back again
He's just another loser like me

[Verse 4]
There's a hobo up in heaven on the golden street
He'll panhandle every angel that he'll meet
He'll hock his halo for some Sneaky Pete
He's just another loser like me

[Chorus]
Losers, losers
Some are dopers, some are boozers
But all the muscatel is down in hell
With all the other losers like me

[Verse 5]
When God appeared to Saint John Wayne
He told him, "Duke, I'm a-comin' again
And life is just a wagon train
And I'm glad you're not a loser like me!"

[Chorus]
Losers, losers
Ten gallon bruisers
From Genghis Kahn to the Fuller brush man
They're just a bunch of losers like me
