Everybody Loves A Winner Lyrics - William Bell

Once I had fame 

Oh I was full of pride 

Had lots of friends 

Always here right by my side 

Well my fame oh it died 

Now my friends all try to hide 

Everybody loves a winner 

Everybody loves a winner 

But when you lose, you lose alone 

Everywhere I turned 

There was a hello and smile 

I never thought 

They'd be gone after a while 

Well my friends let me down 

And the smiles turned to frowns 

Everybody loves a winner 

Everybody loves a winner 

But when you lose, you lose alone 

Once I had love 

Ah but I couldn't be true 

To get back that love 

There ain't nothing I wouldn't do 

Well I've loved 

And I've lost 

And now I'll pay the cost 

Everybody loves a winner 

Everybody loves a winner 

Everybody loves a winner 

But when you lose, you lose alone
