The real winner
How and who becomes a winner;
Is a winner someone who is always on time for dinner;
Is it the person who takes the easy way through life;
Is it the man who has the prettiest wife;
Is it the man who has the biggest Bank account;
Is it the lady with the sugar daddy;
Is it the lady with the sexiest body;
Well in our addiction the way we are told winners stay with winners;
So going to AA, NA is not about just going;
It's about looking and listening to see who has the answers and what they're doing;
Are they just talking the talk or are they walking the walk;
If they are you should ask him or her to be your sponsor;
Cause they just might be the one that strives to be a winner;
The man the woman the person who will help you be on time for dinner;
