Jon Fratelli - Sometimes You Just Can't Win lyrics

I won't take your pity, and I won't be ignored I don't want your money, but I wouldn't mind to be adored I won't be forgotten, I won't be denied I can't be held guilty for anything I might've tried And there's no spooks around my door Paying my rent or sweeping my floor I never said things I never did mean Once or twice I've lied I've always been kind to women who have taken me in Sometimes you're a sinner, sometimes you just can't win I can't live forever, I can't be blamed for trying I can't beg forgiveness just because you won't find me crying I won't want you thinking I'm a gutless man Street fights they don't scare me, I avoid them when I can And there's no doubt about it, it's a pointless age built with men among rage It's hard to be the saint when you steal the best lines, someone else implied I never been one to talk much, I've just lived in my skin Sometimes you're a loser, sometimes you just can't win I won't be a hound dog, I won't be a bust I can't compensate you for anything you might've lost I don't understand you, but what's to understand You joined last night's choir, and me, I joined a band And there's no reason, just cold-hard facts Nothing's ever real and the truth just cracks I don't want this 'cause I've got mine And jealousy's not my style Someday I'll get bored and contemplate giving in Sometimes you're a saint, sometimes you just can't win
