Lyrics If I Lose (Outtake) - The Band

If I Lose (Outtake)

I never thought I’d need you
But now I find I’m wrong
Come on back, sweet mama
Back where you belong
I’ve gambled over this town
And find that I can’t win
Come on back and pick me up again
Now if I lose
Let me lose
I don’t care
How much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars
While I’m tryin' to win a dime
My baby, she’s got money all the time
Of all the other girls I know
None can take your place
'Cause when I get into a jam
They just ain’t in this race
So come on back home, babe
Let’s make another round
With you here by my side, babe
The deal just can’t go down
