[Intro]

Aw yeah


[Verse 1]

Stand here ev'ry night

I'm wearin' my number

But she said wear it

Touching up another fool

In a jukebox job downin' blues

In her leopard-skin anklehigh boots

While I'm jackin' off

Readin' Playboy on a hot afternoon, yeah


[Chorus]

I'm a three-time loser

Caught it up in Monterey

Shook it up in East Virginia

Now my friends say it's here to stay

Now listen


[Verse 2]

How dare you have a party

In a Chelsea basement, yeah

When the poor excited Jezebel said, "Come outside"

She felt me up and kissed my face

Put her dirty hands down in my pants

She took all of my money

Left me naked by the silvery moon


[Chorus]

I'm a three-time loser

Caught it up in Monterey

Shook it up in East Virginia

Now my friends say it's here to stay


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 3]

Roll away, roll away, all of you women

I don't think I need you anymore

There'll be no more doctor's bills

There'll be no more swallowing pills

And I've found a woman

That can witness that in blood out of me


[Chorus]

I'm a three-time loser

Caught it up in Monterey

Shook it up in East Virginia

Now my friends say it's here to stay

I'm a three-time loser

Caught it up in Monterey

Shook it up in East Virginia

Now my friends say it's here to stay
