Now gather around me blues

I'd like to make a toast

Let's all extend three cheers

To a guy that's lost the most

I don't want your pity

Or your sympathy

Just three cheers for the loser

That's me

Well I set out to win her

Knowing I might lose

I didn't think I'd end up

Talking to the blues

The only thing I didn't lose

Is her haunting memory

Three cheers for the loser

That's me

Now blues I stand before you

And I'm still hurting yet

The things I've been through

You know I won't forget

Still I took it like a man

You know I set her free

Three cheers for the loser

That's me

Well I set out to win her

Knowing I might lose

I didn't think I'd end up

Talking to the blues

The only thing I didn't lose

Is her haunting memory

Three cheers for the loser

That's me

Oh three cheers for the loser

That's me
