Lady Luck

There's a woman in New Orleans
Said to love me she was born
But that was Friday payday
By Sunday she was gone

So I drove on down to Texas
Where I did not do to well
I fell hard for this woman child
Turn on she came from, well

Lady Luck, help me hold on
Lady Luck, help me hold on
To one that I love

Well I had no luck with women
Thought I'd try my hand at cards
So I headed for Nevada
Gonna really take them on

But the way the hands were fallin'
And the way the money goes
You could say it's getting colder
You could say I nearly froze

Lady Luck, help me hold on
Lady Luck, help me hold on
To one that I love

So I started playing guitar
In a southern boogie band
And the ladies I was meeting
Make you want to buy the farm

Gettin' tired of saving souvenirs
Don't remind me where they're from
And the nights come on like magic
In the morning it's all gone

Lady Luck, help me hold on
Lady Luck, help me hold on
To one that I love
Lady Luck, help me hold on
To one that I love

Lady Luck, help me hold on
Lady Luck, help me hold on
To one that I love
Lady Luck, help me hold on
Lady Luck, help me hold on
