The hammer falls under the neon skies
The city lights reflecting in my eyes

Roll the dice a turn of the wheel
Itâ??s my turn to call
If it werenâ??t for hard luck
Iâ??d have no luck at all

Chorus:
Hard luckâ??s got a hold on me
I bet against the odds
Hard luckâ??s cominâ?? down on me
Itâ??s in the fall of the cards
Hard luck

The nightâ??s my savior she keeps me in the dark
A bad shot it seems Iâ??ve missed the mark

Like salt in my wounds
It burns me up inside
Nowhere to run to now
Nowhere to hide

Chorus

Solo

Chorus
(Repeat)

I got some hard luck
It's comin' down to hard luck
All I got is hard luck
Yeah
