Maude’s Blues

[Verse 1]
Losin' is an easy game
Yes, losin' is an easy game
Oh, it's easy to fall, and it's so hard to climb
Pretty soon you're fallin' all of the time
Yes, losin' is an easy game

[Verse 2]
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 slot He put me in
Yes, what can a loser do?

[Verse 3]
Oh, everybody wins sometime
Yes, everybody wins sometime
Well, when my time comes, I'm gonna bar that door
Ain't gonna let my good luck loose no more
Yes, еverybody wins sometime

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Oh, whеn I've lost my last round
Yes, when I've lost my last round
Oh, cradle wood and coffin wood they're all the same to me
They're both carved out of that same pine tree
Yes, when I've lost my last round

[Verse 5]
Losin' is an easy game
Yes, losin' is an easy game
Oh, it's easy to fall, and it's so hard to climb
Pretty soon your fallin' all of the time
Yes, losin' is an easy game
