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
