Lyrics
[verse]
Watched my buddy drive a brand new car
Watched another become a star
Me, I'm still standing at the same old door
Wondering what the winning's for
[verse]
Some folks catch the wave just right
Some folks lose without a fight
I keep swinging, keep the faith
Even when the whole world's out of place
[chorus]
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get to build a mansion
Some guys stand out in the rain
I'm not bitter, I'm just tired
Of watching fortune pass me by
Some guys have all the luck
And I keep asking why
[verse]
Saw an old friend on the evening news
Living large with nothing left to lose
Meanwhile I'm counting every dime
Chasing after borrowed time
[chorus]
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get to build a mansion
Some guys stand out in the rain
I'm not bitter, I'm just tired
Of watching fortune pass me by
Some guys have all the luck
And I keep asking why
[bridge]
But I won't fold, I won't give in
Somewhere down the road my luck begins
Every dog has got his day
I'm just waiting on my way
[chorus]
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get to build a mansion
Some guys stand out in the rain
I'm not bitter, I'm just tired
Of watching fortune pass me by
Some guys have all the luck
And I keep asking why
