There's a honky tonk in this town They call the loser's lounge And I guess, I'm a charter member, you could say
Since love has turned me down Nothin' to do but hang around And listen to all the fools who come to say
That life is full of heartaches for a poor boy 'Cause a bank roll can turn his woman's head around Ain't no use to try and run away or move to another town 'Cause any where a poor boy goes there's a loser's lounge
Had a real good friend named Sam Said, he just couldn't understand Why in the world his sweet love let him down
But a rich man caught her eye He had the money for things to buy Now there's a brand new member Down at the loser's lounge
Life is full of heartaches for a poor boy 'Cause a bank roll can turn his woman's head around Ain't no use to try and run away or move to another town 'Cause any where a poor boy goes there's a loser's lounge
