You're feeling better now
You've started reaping now
Getting paid for overtime
It's fascinating right
How when you smile at life
Chances are it's smiling back

A castle on a desert sandy shore
Living on the sunny side
Slow but never bored

You can't win (you can't win)
You can't win with your hands down
You can't win (you can't win)
You can't win with your hands down
'Cause I,I... 
I know that it takes now
And I,I...
I'm taking no breaks

You don't lay down and cry
When faith is cruel at times
When fortune only passes by
And it'll pass alright
More than one time in life
Leaving you with visions of

A castle on a desert sandy shore
Living on the sunny side
Soar and never wore

No, you can't win (you can't win)
You can't win with your hands down
You can't win (you can't win)
You can't win with your hands down
'Cause I,I... 
I know that it takes now
And I,I...
I'm taking no breaks

(When the day is done) when the day is done
When you know that you did all that you can do
(When the day is done) when the day is done
You can't lay your head down

You can't win (you can't win)
You can't win with your hands down
You can't win (you can't win)
You can't win with your hands down
'Cause I,I... 
I know that it takes now
And I,I...
I'm taking no breaks
