BEAUTIFUL LOSER

VERSE
Beautiful loser strumming his guitar
Plays like he's a star for you
Beautiful loser likes to stay in town
Gets a little down, it's true.
CHORUS
Never travels far, puffs a cheap cigar
Always has a song for you
Listens everyday to the children play
He once had youngsters too
Beautiful loser, you
VERSE
Beautiful loser always makes the rent
Counting every cent or two
Beautiful loser doesn't mind at all, never thinks to call on you
Beautiful loser never will complain
Just sings a sweet refrain for you.
{INSTRUMENTAL PARTIAL VERSE}
CHORUS
Never travels far, puffs a cheap cigar
Always has a song for you
Listens everyday to the children play
He once had youngsters, too
Beautiful loser, you.
VERSE
Beautiful loser strumming his guitar
Plays like he's a star for you
Beautiful loser never will complain
Just sings a sweet refrain or two
Beautiful loser, you.
