Lyrics You Can't Win 'Em All - Levon Helm

You Can't Win 'Em All

You only think of yourself, she said
Why do you leave me lonely with nothing at all
I’m nothing without you, you can’t win 'em all
I’ve never had it so good, she said
But in the end it all comes to nothing at all
She’s nothing without me, you can’t win 'em all
If love’s a gamble then love’s a game
Win or lose, it’s worth the pain
Love’s a gamble and just the same
But if you lose, if you lose, who’s to blame?
I didn’t help but I sympathize
She only aging and I know she’s real to fall
I’m finished without her, you can’t win 'em all
If love’s a gamble then love’s a game
Win or lose, it’s worth the pain
Love’s a gamble and just the same
But if you lose, if you lose, who’s to blame?
Tell me, what if you lose
You just might lose, so tell me who’s to blame?
(You only think of yourself, she said)
You can’t win 'em all, you just might fall
Then tell me who’s to blame?
(I've never had it so good, she said)
I’ve never had it so good, my darling
