I tried to love you but it, it was no use
I feel like I'm choking on a, a hangman's noose
Hard luck woman you know you're always down
Hands in my pockets with your eyes on the ground
Hard luck woman I'm leaving your hard luck town
I'm leaving your hard luck town
Well you're a, a good lookin' woman you know truth be told
But a love you're givin' us is way too cold
Lord have mercy, woman, on your hard luck soul
Baby on your hard luck soul
Well a, a hard luck a woman you know I believe you're cursed
My luck keeps a going from bad to worse
I'm leaving here baby, if I'm leaving here in a hearse
If they carry me in a hearse
And when I leave you woman you know I, I can't be found
And 99 hounds can't track me down
Hard luck woman, I'm turning my luck around
I'm turning my luck around
