Social Distortion - Born To Lose Lyrics
I was brought in this world 1962,I didn't have much choice you see.But by the time I was eight,I could tell it was too late,I was already barking up the wrong tree.Well, when I was in school you thought I was a fool,In trouble, breaking all the rules.I was absent from class,My daddy spanked my bare ass,But I sure tried hard to be cool.CHORUS: Born to lose, was what they said,You know I was better off dead.Born to lose, You're just bad news,You don't get no second chance.It was a hot summer night in mid July,A hangover and a black eye.Your momma said I was a loser,A dead end cruiser,And deep inside I knew that se was right.REPEAT CHORUS:I try to get myself a job,Because of the way that things are,Would I have nice things and go far?Well, I'm sorry honey,I ain't got much money,But I can sure play this here ol' guitar.As the years went on,I make a few mistakes.It was trouble bound for this young man.The police knockin' at my door,Well, he don't live here no more,And he's playin' in a rock n' roll band.REPEAT CHORUS X2
