If I had a girl that loved me

Just as much as she loves you

I'd stay in her arms every doggone day

And never would be untrue

You can't win

(You can't win)

Don't do it, my friend

Well, you told her lies and alibis

You tried to make her think you care

But when she wants the little bit of love you promised

She can't find it anywhere

You can't win

(You can't win)

Don't do it, my friend

One of these days you're gonna find yourself

All alone and, oh, so blue

Don't come to me for sympathy 'cause it'll be too late

There won't be a thing I can do for you

Well, you'd better take her in your lovin' arms

And tell her that you're so ashamed

Don't try to be smart and break her heart

'Cause you're gonna play a loser's game

You can't win

(You can't win)

Don't do it, my friend

One of these days you're gonna find yourself

All alone and, oh, so blue

Don't come to me for sympathy 'cause it'll be too late

There won't be a thing I can do for you

Well, you'd better take her in your lovin' arms

And tell her that you're so ashamed

Don't try to be smart and break her heart

'Cause you're gonna play a loser's game

You can't win

(You can't win)

Don't do it, my friend

You can't win

(You can't win)

Don't do it, my friend

You can't win

(You can't win)

Don't do it, my friend
