I'm Always On A Mountain When I Fall Lyrics - Icon - Merle Haggard

Most of my life I've almost been a winner 

I've come so close but never really won 

Just when I thought I finally made it 

I found myself back where I started from 

I hate to say I'm giving up but I believe 

Losin's just become a way of life for me 

Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all 

But I'm always on a mountain when I fall 

Then you came along and had me had me believing 

For once in my life my luck had finally changed 

And now you say you're gonna leave me 

Seems everything I do winds up the same 

I hate to say I'm giving up... 

Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all 

But I'm always on a mountain when I fall
