Winning Ugly - The Rolling Stones
(Jagger/Richards)
I wanna be on top.
Forever on the up and damn the competition.
I never play it fair,
I never turn a hair,
just like the politicians.
I wrap my conscience up.
I wanna win that cup and get my money, baby.
But, back in the dressing room
the other side is weeping.
And we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly.
And we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly.
And we're heading for the heartbreak,
heading for the blues. Yeah.
And we're heading for the heartbreak,
heading for the blues.
And we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly.
I will not act unkind,
I will not be so blind,
I will not walk so proud,
come down from off my cloud.
How can I live my life this way?
A beauty is staring me in the face,
ain't that the truth?
Ain't that the truth?
Hold on, [Huuu huuu hu!] oh, c'mon girl.
[Huuu huuu hu!] Ha, c'mon girl.
Look out for number one.
My country right or wrong,
let the devil take the hindmost.
I was brought up to cheat
so long as the referee wasn't looking.
I'm never wrong at all.
I always fight the call.
I don't admit it.
But back in the dressing room
the other side is a screaming.
And we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly. Yeah.
And we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly. Ha, ha.
And we're heading for the heartbreak,
heading for the blues, ya.
And I'm heading for the heartbreak,
heading for the blues.
Yeah, and we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly, yeah.
I will not act unkind,
I will not be so blind,
I will not walk so proud,
come down from off my cloud.
How can I live my life this way?
A beauty is staring me in the face,
ain't that the truth?
Ain't that the truth?
Come on baby!
Come on girl!
A little bit louder!
Walk a little bit prouder!
[Huuu huuu hu!]
Meow, wait I am, wait I am, wait I am ...
[Huuu huuu hu!]
Yeah, and we're winning [winning], winning [winning] ugly.
That's allright.
Winning [winning], winning [winning], winning ugly.
Come on girl.
Watch me saying [winning] winning [winning], winning ugly.
Ah, and I'm winning [winning], winning [winning] winning ugly.
Winning ugly!
Come on [winning], stay away [winning ugly],
step over girl, step over girl, come on.
Come on, [winning] come on [winning ugly] .
It's allright, it's allright.
