Maude's Blues (Losing Is an Easy Game)

Sylvia Fricker Tyson


Losing is an easy game
Yes, losing is an easy game
It's so easy to fall, but it's so hard to climb
Pretty soon your falling all of the time
Yes, losing is an easy game

Oh, what can a loser do?
Yes, what can a loser do?
Oh, the Lord made losers so a winner could win
That's the spot he put me in
Yes, what can a loser do?

Oh everybody wins sometime
Yes, everybody wins sometime
Well, when my tome comes, gona bar that door
Ain't gonna let my good luck loose no more
Yes, everybody wins sometime.

Oh, when I've lost my last round,
Yes, when I've lost my last round,
Crating wood and coffin wood are all the same to me
They're both carved out of that same pine tree
Yes, when I've lost my last round

Losing is an easy game
Yes, losing is an easy game
It's so easy to fall, but it's so hard to climb
Pretty soon your falling all of the time
Yes, losing is an easy game
