Loser’s Paradise Lyrics

[Chorus]
Take a right turn off the wrong road
And then take it all the way
Bring a broken heart, an empty glass
And hear my people say
Fill her up, stack the deck
Spin the wheel and roll the dice
Everyone's a winner
In my loser's paradise

[Verse 1]
Take a streetcar named desire
And you won't have far to go
There's no peace down in the Valley
Where that whiskey river flows
Steal the heart of a devil woman
You'll have to pay the price
Admission's always on the house
In my loser's paradise

[Chorus]
Take a right turn off the wrong road
And then take it all the way
Bring a broken heart, an empty glass
And hear my people say
Fill her up, stack the deck
Spin the wheel and roll the dice
Everyone's a winner
In my loser's paradise
[Verse 2]
When I look at life in loser's eyes
I never have a care
Behind every silver lining
There's a dark cloud waiting there
Come be a frequent flier
On my unfriendly skies
This plane will be crash landing
In my loser's paradise

[Chorus]
Take a right turn off the wrong road
And then take it all the way
Bring a broken heart, an empty glass
And hear my people say
Fill her up, stack the deck
Spin the wheel and roll the dice
Everyone's a winner
In my loser's paradise
Everyone's a winner
In my loser's paradise

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
