Hard Luck

(앨범: Deliverin' - 1971)

Here it comes, another heartache
Bringing me pain and misery
It's peeking 'round the bend saying
"Hey my friend, sit down, and keep me company."
Always seems to me that
I make the biggest fool and tragedy.
Telling you this time I'm gonna stay in line,
No one's a-gonna bother me.
Think about the times, if you can, and I'll let you
Remember the rhymes that we talked when we were new.
I can recall the days when I'd wake up
To find you beside me,
But you could have stayed
'Stead of taking off that way..

Here it comes, another heartache
Bringing me pain and misery
It's peeking 'round the bend saying
"Hey my friend, sit down, and keep me company."
Always seems to me that
I make the biggest fool and tragedy.
Telling you this time I'm gonna stay in line,
No one's a-gonna bother me.

And I can't ever change it
Hard luck is all to blame.
If I try to rearrange it,
I wished I could, it ain't no good
Why do things always turn out just the same?
