When your down and out, and there seems no hope at all
You’ve got to stand and fight, though your backs against the wall

You got to be hungry, have the will to survive
There’s no easy way; it’s hard to stay alive

You’ve got to fight for your right to survival
Dyin’ can seem the easy way
Fight with all your might to get through it
Only you have got the final say…

Winner takes it all, winner takes it all

And, when you’re feeling low and life is closing in on you
You’ve got to reach inside; your heart will show you what to do
You got to start shouting, let them hear what you say
You have to stand and fight, let nothing in your way

You’ve got to fight for your right to survival
Dyin’ can seem the easy way
Fight with all your might to get through it
Only you have got the final say…

Winner takes it all, winner takes it all

So, when you’re feeling low, and life is closing in on you
You’ve got to reach inside; your heart will show you what to do

Winner takes it all
