WINNER TAKE ALL

WINNER TAKE ALL

For every singer that’s famous
There must be a couple that ain’t
Well, he was a wasn’t but also he wasn’t
The kind to be thing he can’t
So, he got him a job on the radio
Spinning’ records and speaking’ his mind
Singing’ in discos and delis in the evening’
And any old place he could find

One night he was playing a record
The telephone flashed him a red
He qued up another and thinking’, oh, brother
Put the phone on his shoulder and said
I bet you I’m betting’ I’m lonely
I bet you could win you a dime
I never was much of a gamblin’ man
So, won’t you let me win this time
I bet you were betting’ I’m only
Waiting’ for someone to call
Tonight I feel like a gamble
I need a little Winner Take All

There was a moment of silence
As the wheels went spinning around
Adding up this and figuring that
You could wish that a smile made a sound
It seemed like the perfect arrangement
No way to lose but to win
So she took a deep one, decided to keep on
Playin’ her hunches and then she said,
“I bet that you’re betting’ I’m lonely
I bet you could win you a dime
I’ve never been much of a gambler
But won’t you let me win this time
I bet that you’re betting’ I’m only
Waiting for someone to call
Tonight I feel like a gamble
I need a little Winner Take All

I bet that you’re betting’ I’m lonely
I bet that you could win you a dime
I’ve never been much of a gambler
So, won’t you let me win this time
I bet that you’re betting’ I’m only
Waiting’ for some one to call
But tonight I feel like a gambol
I need a little Winner Take All

For every singer that’s famous
there must be a couple that ain’t
Well, he was a wasn’t but also he wasn’t…
