Hard Luck Woman

(album: Rock And Roll Over - 1976)

If never I met you
I'd never have seen you cry
If not for our first "Hello"
We'd never have to say goodbye
If never I held you
My feelings would never show
It's time I start walking
But there's so much you'll never know

I keep telling you, hard-luck woman
You ain't a hard-luck woman

Rags, the sailor's only daughter
A child of the water
Too proud to be a queen
Rags, I really love you
I can't forget about you
You'll be a hard-luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

Before I go let me kiss you
And wipe the tears from your eyes
I don't wanna hurt you, girl
You know I could never lie

I keep telling you, hard-luck woman
You ain't a hard-luck woman
You'll be a hard-luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

Rags, the sailor's only daughter
A child of the water
Too proud to be a queen
Rags, I really love you
I can't forget about you
You'll be a hard-luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

You'll be a hard-luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

Oh yeah, bye bye
So long, don't cry
I'm just packing my bags, whoa, leaving you
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye, baby, don't cry

I gotta keep on moving, yeah moving
Bye, bye baby
Ooh, don't cry, lady, oh
