[Verse 1]
I know you never had money sense
Make just enough to cover rent
It's not the cash that's got you feeling spent
The day-to-day is like a whirlwind
Spending time trying to make some change
But everything seems to stay the same

[Chorus]
You keep trying
You keep trying
You keep trying
But you just can't win
But you just can't win
But you just can't win
But you just can't win

[Verse 2]
You carry on—that's the only way
So clap your hands and stomp your feet
Said, "Clap your hands and stomp your feet"
Make your time, don't just make ends meet
Hold fast and you'll surely see
You'll hit your mark, but it ain't for free

[Chorus]
You keep trying
You keep trying
You keep trying
But you just can't win
But you just can't win
But you just can't win
No you just can't win
No you just can't win

[Outro]
You keep trying
You keep trying
You keep trying
But you just can't win
Said you just can't win
No you just can't win
Said you just can't win
You can't win
Just can't win
But you keep on trying
And you might just win
