Hi Everyone! It's been a while... I spent my day trying to write down "Losers" by Dave Van Ronk, and my second-language-english has proven his limit once again. So... I'd ask if anyone has the record (It's on "Going back to Brroklyn" and "A Chrestomaty") and can fill the blanks? After that, I'll just have to wonder what some lines means... --- Losers I blew my ? playing 7 cards stud I was playing for money, He was playing for blood On the way back home the big winner got [mud? mock?] Now he's just another loser like me Losers, losers [… …] He's just another loser like See that kid sitting back at the bar He's picking up the [?] on a Martin guitar That poor fool thinks he's gonna be a star He's just another loser like me Losers, losers some are raggers, some are [?] Make disco sounds and [hojo?] lounge With a bunch of Losers like me Love has busted up this [cat?] for sure He's crying like a baby and his baby's dog That poor fool don't know what he's crying for, He's just another looser like me Losers, losers Can't say no to cruisers But she says when he'll be back again He's just another looser like me There's a hobo up ahead on a golden street [… … … now that one is hard!] Losers, Losers, Some are doper, some are boozers All I must can tell is down in hell He's just another looser like me When God appeared to St-John Wayne He told him "Duke Im a-coming again Life is just a wagon train I'm glad you're another loser like me" Losers, Losers, Ten dollar [?] From Genghis Khan to the Fuller Brush Man They're just a bunch of losers like me. -- Thanks as always, SP
