It's a losing game
Life without the Lord is just a losing game
And it's a crying shame
'Cause when you lose
You've only got yourself to blame
He's tried to tell you so many times
You turn your back and just close your mind
And play the losing game
Don't be such a fool and play the losing game

If you're gamblin' your life away
Moment by moment, day by day
You're takin' chances that are never gonna pay
You're the only one to blame
You really oughta be ashamed
'Cause no one ever wins at a losing game

Well, it's a losing game
Life without the Lord is just a losing game
And it's a crying shame
'Cause when you lose
You've only got yourself to blame

Games are made to win or lose
Will you play, that's yours to choose
But no one ever wins at a losing game
It's a losing game
Life without the Lord is just a losing game
And it's a crying shame
'Cause when you lose
You've only got yourself to blame

(They're never gonna pay)

It's a losing game
Life without the Lord is just a losing game
And it's a crying shame
'Cause when you lose
You've only got yourself to blame
He's tried to tell you so many times
You turn your back and just close your mind
And play the losing game
Don't be such a fool and play the losing game

Losing game, crying shame
Losing game, crying shame
Losing game, crying shame
Losing game, crying shame
