Testo Just Can't Win - Jimmy Nail

Testo della canzone Just Can't Win (Jimmy Nail), tratta dall'album Crocodile Shoes II

You're waking in a different bed

Forgotten every word you said

You recognize the person next to you

You're sneaking down the backroom stairs

Braving all the public squares

What's a living legend supposed to do?

And I've been told that you're looking old

But you're still appearing well preserved to me

Let them stare, let them lose their hair

'Cause you've seen the movie, you read the book

You've been there, done that, sat down and looked for free

And you keep trying but you just can't win

You keep breathing but the air's so thin

You keep knocking but you can't come in

You keep trying but you just can't win

Looking at your works of art

Banging your peroxide tart

You get them in a lucky bag for free

And then you said you couldn't live without it

So what you gonna do about it?

Nostalgia's not the game it used to be, no

And I've been told about your bands of gold

But I have to say they cut no ice with me

Your silver chains that dangle down

As you're trying hard to beat the clock

Dressed up shouting "Long live rock and roll"

But you keep trying but you just can't win

You keep breathing but the air's so thin

You keep knocking but you can't come in

You keep trying but you just can't win

Keep trying but you just can't win

You keep breathing but the air's so thin

You keep knocking but you can't come in

You keep trying but you just can't win

Oh, listen now, you keep trying but you just can't win

You keep breathing but the air's so thin

You keep knocking but you can't come in

Keep on knocking

You keep trying but you just can't win

And you keep trying but you just can't win

You keep breathing but the air's so thin

So you keep trying, keep on trying

You keep knocking but you can't come in

You keep on trying, keep on trying

But you keep trying but you just can't win

Keep on trying

Keep on trying now
