Lyrics
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
Nothing 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 anywhere 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
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 anywhere a poor boy goes there's a loser's lounge
Oh yeah
