Beautiful Loser - Bob Seger

He wants to dream like a young man

With the wisdom of an old man

He wants his home and security

He wants to live like a sailor at sea

Beautiful loser

Where you gonna fall?

When you realize

You just can’t have it all

He’s your oldest and your best friend

If you need him, he’ll be there again

He’s always willing to be second-best

A perfect lodger, a perfect guest

Beautiful loser

Read it on the wall

And realize

You just can’t have it all

You just can’t have it all

You just can’t have it all

Ohh, ohh, can’t have it all

You can try, you can try, but you can’t have it all

Oh yeah

He’ll never make any enemies, enemies, no He won’t complain if he’s caught in a freeze

He’ll always ask, he’ll always say please

Beautiful loser

Never take it all

'Cause it’s easier

And faster when you fall

You just don’t need it all

You just don’t need it all

You just don’t need it all

Just don’t need it all
