John Kruger - Lady Luck Lyrics

This is the story of a strange lady
She was hard to get to know
When asked if she could stay
She said no, she had to go
Many have asked her to stay
But none have gotten through
When looking at them closer
They look a lot like me and you
Lady luck we have known her
Throughout most of our life
She just wants a brief affair
But we want her as our wife
She entices us with gladness
Offering hope to calm our fears
Promising to take away the sadness
And to wipe away all our tears
She promises fame and fortune
To lift us up when we're down
But when we face misfortune
She hardly ever comes around
Lady luck we have known her
Throughout most of our life
She just wants a brief affair
But we want her as our wife
She'll caress us with a smile
Showing love deep in her eyes
She often begs us to call on her
Then refuses to hear our cries
When it's time for her to leave
We try hard to keep her there
She just turns and walks away
Because she really doesn't care
Lady luck we have known her
Throughout most of our life
She just wants a brief affair
But we want her as our wife
She just wants a brief affair
But we want her as our wife
Lady luck, lady luck
Lady luck, lady luck
