winner.

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 homecoming crown
Chasing down that Nashville sound
In a '92 hand me down, but

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 being a winner
When all you're doin's keeping score?

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
And 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

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 being a winner?
Nobody's even keeping score

I thought if I could just be a winner
That's all anybody would see
But I'm over overachieving
These days my greatest victory is a

High five for the girl making dinner
First place for a family of four
I was born in a town called Winner
But I don't live there anymore

I'm a winner
