Some guys have all the luck Some guys have all the pain Some guys get all the breaks Some guys do nothing but complain Alone in a crowd on a bus after working, I'm dreaming The guy next to me has a girl in his arms, my arms are empty How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you? Seems so unfair when there's love everywhere but there's none for me Some guys have all the luck Some guys have all the pain Some guys get all the breaks Some guys do nothing but complain Woo woo woo Woo woo woo Someone to take on a walk by the lake Lord, let it be me Someone who's shy, someone who'd cry at sad movies I know I would die if I ever found out she was foolin' me You're just a dream, and as real as it seems, I ain't that lucky Some guys have all the luck Some guys have all the pain Some guys get all the breaks Some guys do nothing but complain All of my friends have a ring on their finger, they have someone Someone to care for them, it ain't fair, I got no one The car overheated, I called up and pleaded, there's help on the way I called you collect, you didn't accept, you had nothing to say Some guys have all the luck Some guys have all the pain Some guys get all the breaks Some guys do nothing but complain But if you were here with me I'd feel so happy, I could cry You are so dear to me I just can't let you say goodbye Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo Woo woo woo. Woo woo woo
