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.
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 a__,
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 a 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 know that she was right.

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 a second chance.

I tried to get myself a job
Because that's the way that things are,
Wanna have nice things and go far.
Well I'm sorry honey, I ain't got much money
But I can sure play this here old guitar.
As the years went on, I made a few mistakes
It was a troublebound 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

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 a second chance.
