Boozers Are Losers (1980)
Boozers are losers when benders don’t end
Whiskey I’ve loved you since I don’t know when
It’s all kind of hazy and hard to recall
The honky-tonk bars and climbing the walls

I heard him saying as he left the bar
It’s nobody’s fault it’s the way that things are
The rich get the cake and the poor get the blame
Sometimes I feel like a cat in the rain

I lived in West Texas when I was a child
Where ladies are lovers and cowboys are wild
I learned to drink before I learned to sing
Sometimes I feel like a bird with no wings

Boozers are losers when benders won’t end
Whiskey I’ve loved you since I don’t know when
It’s all kind of hazy and hard to recall
The honky-tonk bars and climbing the walls

Whiskey you devil you’ve been my downfall
When I’m in trouble there’s no one to call
Sometimes I feel like I’m lost in a dream
Demons and bottles I’ve heard them all scream

Boozers are losers when benders won’t end
Whiskey I’ve loved you since I don’t know when
It’s all kind of hazy and hard to recall
The honky-tonk bars and climbing the walls

Boozers are losers when benders won’t end
Whiskey I’ve loved you since I don’t know when
It’s all kind of hazy and hard to recall
The honky-tonk bars and climbing the walls
The honky-tonk bars and climbing the walls
