winner Lyrics by Galyon Nicolle
Galyon Nicolle Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I lost my dad at three
Along with half my family tree
And I lost my virginity
Later than everybody and still wasn't ready
I lost my first hometown
And a box with my Homecomin' crown
Chasin' down that Nashville sound
In a '92 hand-me-down, but
[Chorus]
I was born in a town called Winner
And my name means victory
So you can only imagine
All of the pressure I put on me, oh, it's
Two points for the girl in the mirror
A gold star for the girl next door
But what good is bein' a winner
When all you're doing's keepin' score?
[Verse 2]
I lost some weight at twenty-two
Some guy twice my age told me to
On 16th Avenue
It's hard to make a penny, everybody's skinny
I lost some ground when I took the name
Of someone who already won the game
And I lost some cred and I lost my head
But I found my voice and I made my own bed 'cause
[Chorus]
I was born in a town called Winner
And my name means victory
So you can only imagine
All of the pressure I put on me, oh, it's
Two points for your first gold record
You're number one, but you want one more
What good is bein' a winner?
Nobody's even keepin' score
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I thought if I could just be a winner
That's all anybody would see
But I'm over overachievin'
These days, my greatest victory is a
High five for the girl makin' dinner
A first place for a family of four
I was born in a town called Winner
But I don't live there anymore
[Outro]
I'm a winner
