You Can't Win Lyrics

You got me so I can't help but fail
I can't watch both my head and tail
Well I can't win baby
I can't win with you
Strike me dead if I don't love you
And I'll be damned if I do

Now how'd I show you I still care
If I'm to mind my own affairs
Well I can't win baby
I can't win with you
Strike me dead if I don't love you
And I'll be damned if I do

Now I'm not sure just how much more I can take
Ain't I suffered long enough for one mistake

Now baby I aim to please and I always will
If you just hold the target still
Well I can't win baby
I can't win with you
Strike me dead if I don't love you
And I'll be damned if I do

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
