| Sometimes the world’s too big
|
| And sometimes that road’s too hard
|
| Some fools can rise so easy
|
| When good people can’t get a start
|
| There’s no guarantee you’ll get what you deserve
|
| And it’s rarely the meek that inherit the earth
|
| 'Cause when the winner’s left standing
|
| There’s always a loser that falls
|
| If a beautiful face is your ticket
|
| Or your family has blue, blue blood
|
| You could pull up that ladder behind you
|
| Or turn around and help someone up
|
| 'Cause I don’t believe that you don’t give a damn
|
| Sometimes you’ve got to just reach out your hand
|
| 'Cause when the winner’s left standing
|
| There’s always a loser that falls
|
| You might be a high roller
|
| In a palace in the sun
|
| But turn your back on your brother
|
| Like you don’t need anyone
|
| You’re gonna start to act lonely
|
| When you’re only friend’s regret
|
| You might discover
|
| You’re the loser yet |
