Earl Thomas Conley: "I Can't Win for Losin' You" Lyrics

(Robert Byrne/Rick Bowles) 

Hey, how've you been? Good to see you again 

Gee, it's been a long time 

How's that new man, Mom & Dad 

Since I told you goodbye? 

Now I'm still the same, still raisin' Cain 

Nobody's worried 'bout me 

I come & I go, just as I please 

Since I set myself free 

CHORUS: 

But I can't win for losin' you 

I just can't get over you 

Bein' footloose & fancy free 

Ain't all it's cracked up to be 

& the grass ain't no greener 

Here on the other side 

I might win a heart or 2 

But I can't win for losin' you 

Well I'm on my way, there's so much to say 

Lord knows that I've had my time 

Girl, you can bet I'll never forget 

When you used to be mine 

(repeat chorus & fade)
