lucky 16
Select language to translate this lyric
I had 16 wives over 15 years
14 went blind when the 13th appeared
And the 12th couldn't stay in her lane
God bless her soul
11 had a date
Caught late with a westbound train
And woe is me
I need a new girl
I had 10 cheap wives over empty plots
Number 9 loved the flask
And the 8th never got
(My 7 lives)
6, 5, 4 were the triplets drowned
Meeting 3, 2, 1
Where they sunk in the ground
And woe is me
I need a new girl
'Cause she's dead
I put two bullets in her head
And she's at the bottom
Of the well
