Lady Luck Blues - Bessie Smith Clarence Williams

Bad luck has come to stay

Trouble never end

My man has gone away

With a girl I thought was my friend

I m worried down with care

Lordy can t you hear my prayer

Lady luck lady luck

Won t you please smile down on me

There s the time friend of mine

I need your sympathy

I ve got a horseshoe on my door

I ve knocked on wood till my hands are sore

Since my man s done turned me loose

I ve got those lady luck blues I mean

I ve got those lady luck blues

Lady luck lady luck

Won t you please smile down on me

There s the time friend of mine

I need your sympathy

I ve got his picture turned upside down

I ve sprinkled goofer dust all around

Since my man is gone I m all confused

I ve got those lady luck blues

Find my good man

I ve got those lady luck blues
