Winner Go Down Lyrics


Fame, fame, fame, is it worth it?
Fame, fame, fame, can you take it?
Fame, fame, fame, are you ready?
Fame, fame, fame, will you make it?
You were touched
With the gold
Of a warm summer morning
A symphony born in the sun
They loved you like pagans
And followed your climb
The strongest
Most beautiful one
You've flown through the clouds
Where the air's very thin
And the word is out

All around town
They've lined up for miles
With their holiday grins
They love to see
A winner go down
Winner go down
Learning to lose
Lie in the gravel
Bathe in the blues
They'll run to the rooftops
Screaming the news
Winner go down
Winner go down
Oh oh oh oh, uh huh
And now the arena
Is quiet and darkened
The crowd is
Covered in smiles
They're holding their breath
At the thought of the slaughter
But you sure kept
'Em waiting awhile
They built up your legend
And danced in your light
'Til they longed
For the day to come 'round
When they'd see you break down
And cry like a baby
They love to see
A winner go down
Winner go down
Learning to lose
Lie in the gravel
Bathe in the blues
They'll run to the rooftops
Screaming the news
Winner go down
They like to see a winner go down
A winner go down
They love to see a winner go down
Fame, fame, fame, is it worth it?
Fame, fame, fame, can you take it?
Fame, fame, fame
The trial is over
The crowd has gone home
Yes, all their predictions came true
But even the thrill
Being there for the fall
It's just glory they borrowed from you
Winner go down
Learning to lose
Lie in the gravel
Bathe in the blues
They'll run to the rooftops
Screaming the news
Winner go down
They love to see a winner go down
Learning to lose
Lie in the gravel
Bathe in the blues
They'll run to the rooftops
Screaming the news
Winner go down
I hate to see a winner go down
Oh oh oh oh oh, uh huh

Barry Manilow (born June 17, 1943 in Brooklyn, New York, United States) is an American pop singer-songwriter, musician, arranger, producer, conductor, and performer, best known for such recordings as "Could It Be Magic", "Mandy", "Can't Smile Without You", and "Copacabana (At the Copa)."

In 1978, five of his albums were on the best-selling charts simultaneously, a feat equaled only by Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen and Johnny Mathis. He has recorded a string of Billboard hit singles and multi-platinum albums that have resulted in his being named Radio & Records number one Adult Contemporary artist and winning three straight American Music Awards for Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist. Several well-known entertainers have given Manilow their "stamp of approval," including Sinatra, who was quoted in the 1970s regarding Manilow, "He's next." In 1988, Bob Dylan stopped Manilow at a party, hugged him and said, "Don't stop what you're doing, man. We're all inspired by you."

As well as producing and arranging albums for other artists, such as Bette Midler and Dionne Warwick, Manilow has written songs for musicals, films, and commercials. From February 2005 to December 30, 2009, he was the headliner at the Las Vegas Hilton, performing hundreds of shows before ending relationship with the hotel. From March 2010, he has headlined at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas. He has sold more than 80 million records worldwide
