Les paroles de "You Can't Win"

You can't win, you can't break even
And you can't get out of the fame
People keep sayin' things are gonna change
But they look just like they're stayin' the same
You get in way over your head
And you've only got yourself to blame
You can't win Chile, you can't break even
And You can't get out of the fame

You can't win, the world keeps movin'
And you're standin' for behind
People keep sayin' far behind
People keep sayin' things'll get better
Just to ease your state of mind
So you lay back and you smoke that smoke
And you drink that glass of wine
You can't win Chile, you can't break even
And You can't get out of the game

You can't win, you can't win, no way
If your story stays the same
You ain't winnin', oh no, but it's nice to see you
I'm awfully glad you came
Better cool it, 'cause it ain't about losin'
Then the world has got no shame
You can't win Chile, you can't break even
And You can't get out of the game

You can't win, you can't break even
Ain't the way it's supposed to be
You'll be spendin', no no, your little bit of money
While someone else rides for free
Learn your lesson, ooh, refuel your mind
Before some turkey blows out your flame

You can't win Chile, no you can't win
You can't win Chile, no you can't win
You can't win Chile, no you can't win
You can't win Chile, no you can't win

You can't win Chile, you can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game
No, no
