Good at Losing

[Verse 1]
They laughed at me in New York City
Called me a fool in L.A
I doubt that Nashville saw me comin'
Besides the bar folks workin' late
Played every room in the state of Texas
All the ones in California too
So many nights I can't remember
Maybe I've played a song for you

[Verse 2]
Left San Francisco in a hurry
They ran me out of Fort Worth town
Into the bottom of New Orleans
Them river boats make a lonesome sound
Lawmen, they caught me in Virginia
No need to tell you what I'd done
Make sure you get your act together
Before you roll up eighty-one

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I've seen the other side of Dallas
Tryin' to climb up to the top
One thing I know about that city
Man, the hustle never stops
That's how I got real good at losing
And wastin' precious time
Most folks who talk about me
Have never lived no life like mine

[Verse 4]
They laughed at me in New York City
Called me a fool in L.A
I doubt that Nashville saw me comin'
Besides the bar folks workin' late
