Teddy Pendergrass
I Can’t Win for Losing
[Verse 1]
Can't understand what's wrong with me
Things ain't like they supposed to be, well, well
I can't understand what's going wrong
I hang on and I got to be strong, well, well

All my life I tried and tried again
But I just can't win
I don't know what my problem is
I'm always getting pulled down
Pulled down by my so called friends
I just don't fit in
They won't let me in
Where do I begin, I ask you people

[Chorus]
I can't win for losing (Must be the stuff)
That I (I've been using)
Now if it might just seem a little bit confusing
I can't win for losing

[Verse 2]
People always say that chances go around
But why am I here still waiting
While they getting down
I can't never say I've been a lucky guy
But I still hang on and I try
And I try
Lord knows I try
But it just ends up
[Chorus]
I can't win for losing (Must be the stuff)
That I (I've been using)
Now if it might just seem a little bit confusing
I can't win for losing
(I can't win for losing)
(I can't win for losing)
Say I tried a little bit of this
I tried a little bit of that
But it always seems I'll end up

Tell you (I can't win for losing)

(I can't win)
Oh no (For losing)
But it seems as though life is at an end
I'm gonna keep trying over and over and over again
I can't win, I can't win
(I can't win for losing)
(I can't win for losing)
Even though life tries to get me down
I'm gonna win some way some how
(I can't win)
Oh no (For losing)
I keep tryna win
I keep tryna win
I don't need no help
