Herbert's Loser Lyrics

Artist: The Guess Who
Album: Rockin'

(Leskiw/Winter)

It sure was scary
When I met Mary
I didnâ‚¬â„¢t understand myself
I was a fool when we were in school
And she understood me better
I guess I had passion
It startled her fashion
She thought it a small price to pay
For fiery nites under northern lites
Helps the snow slowly melt away

Herbertâ‚¬â„¢s a loser
His fatherâ‚¬â„¢s a boozer
He didnâ‚¬â„¢t like himself
He lost his cool and he drowned in a pool
After writing a classic love letter
I guess too much passion
Had startled his fashion
It started and ended that day
He wrote the letter there wasnâ‚¬â„¢t one better
One reading turned millions his way

Now thereâ‚¬â„¢s Mary
It isnâ‚¬â„¢t so scary
Now that I like myself
Iâ‚¬â„¢m no fool and weâ‚¬â„¢re not in school
The water canâ‚¬â„¢t get any wetter
Now Iâ‚¬â„¢m in fashion Iâ‚¬â„¢ll warm up her passion
Sheâ‚¬â„¢ll think it a small price to pay
For fiery nites under northern lites
Helps the snow slowly melt away
