Born To Lose (Album Version) - Social Distortion

I was brought in this world 1962

I didn＇t have much choice you see

But by the time I was eight

I could tell it was too late

I was already barking up the wrong tree

Well when I was in school you

Thought I was a fool

In trouble breaking all the rules

I was absent from class

My daddy spanked my bare a**

But I sure tried hard to be cool

Born to lose was what they said

You know I was better off dead

Born to lose You＇re just bad news

You don＇t get no second chance

It was a hot summer night in mid July

A hangover and a black eye

Your momma said I was a loser

A dead end cruiser

And deep inside I knew that se was right

Born to lose was what they said

You know I was better off dead

Born to lose You＇re just bad news

You don＇t get no second chance

I try to get myself a job

Because of the way that things are

Would I have nice things and go far

Well I＇m sorry honey

I ain＇t got much money

But I can sure play this here ol＇ guitar

As the years went on

I make a few mistakes

It was trouble bound for this young man

The police knockin＇ at my door

Well he don＇t live here no more

And he＇s playin＇ in a rock n＇ roll band

Born to lose was what they said

You know I was better off dead

Born to lose You＇re just bad news

You don＇t get no second chance

Born to lose was what they said

You know I was better off dead

Born to lose You＇re just bad news

You don＇t get no second chance
