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
|
Turned out 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
