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 ou 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 |
