Lyrics

Luck is for Losers
Drew James © 2016
 
Luck is for losers
Tears are for lovers
Freedom is the prison of the free
Rules are for fools
Money's for the taking
Life is for dreamers you see
Life is for dreamers you see
 
I was born a rambling gambler
Taking chances on the fly
The only thing that I was ever good at
Was using people then saying goodbye
 
I was blessed with cool persuasion
Mannish looks and boyish charm
I know you knew I made up all them stories
And I hope you knew I never meant you any harm
 
(Chorus)
 
They say be careful what you wish for
What that meant I guess I never knew
Cause wishes were all that I lived for
Until the day you made that wish come true
 
I always dreamed about tomorrow
And that new man that I would be instead
Tomorrow finally made it's arrival
But that new man, he never did
 
(Chorus)
 
I couldn't face the fact you left me
I wasn't there and I hope you understand
I miss you, but I'm grateful for one thing
You didn't see me blow my second chance
 
I promised I'd be by to visit
I promised that I would not forget
I planned to be down there tomorrow
But this damned truck ain't runnin' yet
 
Luck is for losers
Tears are for lovers
Freedom is the prison of the free
Rules are for fools
Money's for the taking
Life is for dreamers you see
Life is just a game to me
