Boozers Are Losers - Hoyt Axton

Boozers are losers when benders don’t end

Whiskey, I’ve loved you since I don’t know when

It’s all kind of haxy and hard to recall-

The honky tonk bars-the climbin' the walls

I heard him sayin' as he left the bar

«It's nobody’s fault-its the way that things are

The rich get the cake and the poor get the blame

Sometimes I feel like a cat in the rain.»

I lived in west Texas when I was a child

Where ladies are lovers and cowboys are wild

I learned to drink before I learned to sing

Sometimes I feel like a bird with no wings

Repeat chorus

Whiskey, you devil, you’ve been my downfall

When I’m in trouble there’s no one to call

Sometimes I feel like a bird with no wings

Repeat chorus

Boozers are losers when benders don’t end

Whiskey, I’ve loved you since I don’t know when

It’s all kind of hazy and hard to recall

The honky tonk bars-the climbin' the walls

The honky tonk bars-the climbin' the walls

Ooh
