LINDA (an acrostic poem)
Lady Luck came my way,
Invited me for a short stay.
Not knowing what to do,
Did not dare to date you,
Away you went on holiday.
Lady Luck came again,
Inspired me into action.
Now I knew what to do,
Decided to invite you,
And awaited your return.
*******
Lovely to look at, natural,
Intelligent, caring, maternal,
Never selfish, but sacrificial,
Dependable, amiable,
A partner most delectable.

Lady Luck
Theres a woman in new orleans
Said to love me she was born
But that was friday payday
By sunday she was gone
So I drove on down to texas
Where I did not do to well
I fell hard for this woman child
Turn ou she came from...well
Lady luck help me hold on
Lady luck help me hold on
To one that I love
Well I had no luck with women
Thought Id try my hand at cards
So I headed for nevada
Gonna really take them on
But the way the hands were fallin
And the way the money goes
You could say its getting colder
You could say I nearly froze
Lady luck help me hold on
Lady luck help me hold on
To one that I love
So I started playing guitar
In a southern boogie band
And the ladies I was meeting
Make you want to buy the farm
Gettin tired of saving souvenirs
Dont remind me where theyre from
And the nights come on like magic
In the morning its all gone
Lady luck help me hold on
Lady luck help me hold on
To one that I love
Lady luck help me hold on
To one that I love
Lady luck help me hold on
Lady luck help me hold on
To one that I love
Lady luck help me hold on
Lady luck help me hold on

Sweet Lady Luck
(coverdale/vandenberg)
You hold all the aces,
I never get the chance to deal
Flick of the wrist and you cut me down,
Im spinning like a roulette wheel
You say that loves a gamble
But, you play with loaded dice
You hide behind a good girl smile
With a heart stone cold as ice
But, I want it, I need it
If you dont give it Ill steal it,
Ill take it all and walk away
Lady luck,
Youre a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
Who you gonna call when it all falls down on you,
Sweet lady luck...
You cant stop your dealing
cos its a crying shame,
When the winner takes it all
And never ever takes the blame
But I want it, I need it
If you dont give it Ill steal it,
Ill take it all and walk away
Lady luck,
Youre a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
Who you gonna call when it all falls down on you
Uh, what you gonna do?
Lady luck
I need your love, I need it now,
Ive got to have it anyhow,
Sweet lady luck...
I cant win for losing,
Its tearing me apart
So Ill play the joker to your queen of broken hearts
But, I want it, I need it,
If you dont give it Ill steal it
Ill take it all and walk away
Lady luck,
Youre a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
Spinning like a roulette wheel, sweet lady luck
Youre a loser in the game of love, sweet lady luck
I need your love, I need it now,
Ive got to have it anyhow
Sweet lady luck..
Sweet lady luck..
Sweet lady luck..

Lady Luck
(cook/coverdale)
She was a juke-box dancer
A blue eyed gypsy queen
She always had an answer
For what shed done
And where shed been
A feathercane lady midnight
For all around to see
She spoke with words of wisdom
And this is what she said to me
Lady luck
Cmon give me what I want
Pull me up
Lady luck
If I see you again
I will call you my friend
I have always been a sinner
But then the lady came along
She stole my heart and turned me round
till I didnt know right from wrong
She whispered words of kindness
Id never ever heard before
Golden words and silver tongue
Till I really couldnt take no more
Lady luck
Cmon give me what I want
Pull me up
Lady luck
If I see you again
I will call you my friend
Cmon shake me

Lady With The Spinning Head
Here she comes
Lady luck again
Figure of eight
Six and nine again
My lady with the spinning head
Whatever the deal
She wont let me down
Wherever I go
Shes always hanging round
My lady with the spinning head
La la la la la la la la la la la
Lady with the spinning head
La la la la la la la la la la la
Lady with the spinning head
Shes been gone
But I knew shed be back
Shes got the rent
She put me in the black
The lady with the spinning head
Took my mind
Took away my car
Do you dare to ask
What Im talking about
Im on top
When shes around
Shes my ticket
Out of town
La la la la la la la la la la la
Lady with the spinning head
La la la la la la la la la la la

Lady Lvck
Lady Luck licks
her loosened, libidinous lips
lime and gratuitously-
fortuitously gripping
as the dealer's dewdrops dive dancing:
enhancing, 'trancing;
deliciously dripping.
Lady Luck fix:
through a smoke screen of trix,
woowing to wager;
risking more chips.
Lady Luck sticks
to foolish, fickle pricks
licking their wounds in a parlance
of antiherhetoric;
primed for the proverbial
prodigal pocket's pix.
Lady Luck mix:
a dose of blue-notes and bliss;
bribing the boys to bet for broke
on the promise of Persephone-
Aphrodite's
royal, random
roulettte kiss

Lady Luck
Lady Luck
Here I am on time
Proppin' up the bar
with a glass of wine
Friday night
and I'm all spruced up and fine
I ain't goin' nowhere
Lady Luck
Why don't you pull up a chair
And bring your shine right wisdom
Darlin' over here
Your Gaelic humor
And your pious smile
All the cats'll be laugin' tonight
Now you may say it's a funny old world
You may say that the game ain't fair
Is there a plot or do you improvise
Or maybe you don't even care
Lady Luck
Ain't you the fickle kind
Why are some folks lucky
While the rest are tryin'
You keep on playin'
It's still a mystery
You're laced with a touch
of inconsistancy
So why don't you give us all a break
Make us all rich healthy and fine
Five months holidays and a four hour week
And a horse that wins all the time
Lady Luck
Hear the mandolins
Kind of makes you wonder
How it might have been
There go all
The funny place I've got
Back on the street again
Lady Luck
Yeah, it's late I know
Allow me to buy you one more folderol
And tell me something
I've been longin' to hear
It's gotta get better next year
'Cause I've seen some rainy days
My wedding suits are frayed and torn
But now the sun comes shining through
I've cried in my beer too long
Lady Luck, Lady Luck
Don't push me over
When I can't stand up, oh yeah
Sure it's a funny old world
Sure it's a funny old world

My Luck Wont Change
Refrain:
The cances you gave me,
A definite maybe,
But luck shes a lady,stayed
She played for me.
Theres gold in the mountain,
Good fortune for countin,
Three coins in the fountain,
And my luck wont change,
Take dust from the coalmine,
Make dust from the goldmine,
King midas youre sidelined,
And my luck wont change no my luck remains.
Chorus:
No point in shouting,
Whoever there was doudting,
Im at the top of the mountain,
And my luck wont change.
The stock market read it,
The rumours they spread it,
And I meant it when I said it,
That my luck wont change,
No my luck remains.
That old lover lost me,
She spent and she cost me,
My new love has taught me,
That my luck wont change.
(my luck wont change-my luck remains)
Refrain:
The offer she made me,
Was more than just maybe,
But luck whos a lady stayed,
She played for me.
Repeat 1st verse
Chorus:
My temperatures rising,
No point in disguising,
The phoenix is arising,
And my luck wont change-no it just remains.
My luck,my luck wont change.

Ooh take me in your arms and let your luck

We make a right impression when you hold me tight
Wait for a break, my lucky charm
Things are looking up alright - alright

Beautiful lady (who's that lady)
Lovely lady (who's that lady)

Nah, nah, nah don't touch
Who's that lady (who's that lady)
Sexy lady (who's that lady)
Beautiful lady (who's that lady)

Any gift she'd want I'd bring

If she would just do what I say
Come 'round my way, baby

Who's that lady (who's that lady)
Beautiful lady (who's that lady)

Hard Luck
(words & music by weisman - wayne)
Oh Im really feeling mighty low
No, no, no, I got no place that I can go
So Ive got some blues to sing
And oh, so much remembering, woe......
Black cats, keep away from me
Take my advice, go shinning up a tree
I got hard luck, the hardest kind a luck youll find
I aint lyin, Ive got the bluest kinda blues
Drivin me right outta my mind
Shes gone, said toodle-loo
Kissed her good-bye and my-my, my money too
Ive got hard luck, the hardest kinda luck youve seen
I mean, the way Im runnin lately
My lucky number is thirteen
Where do I belong, everything I do is wrong, all wrong
Wrong as can be
Whos stacking all the decks, lady luck has got the hex on me
Im on her knee da-da-da-da
Shove off, oh Im warning you
This thing I caught, you know could be catchin too
Ive got hard luck, the hardest kinda luck there can be
Yes siree, I guess hard luck always chooses
Natural born losers like me
Oh ahhh!

Pursuit On 53rd Street
Tom johnston
On a cross-town bus in the city
I spied a lady all dressed in black
High heeled shoes and her dress cut loose
Her front was saggin out on the rack
I believe, I believe
That the ladys gonna bring me luck
I believe, I believe
That the ladys gonna bring me luck
Driver, wont you stop this crazy machine
And let my feet out and touch the ground
Got to lay me a line on the lady
Before she walks down the street too far
I believe, I believe
That the ladys gonna bring me luck

Lady Luck
I got some bills this morning,
They tumbled through the door
I counted every penny but
The bills still came to more
And printed in the paper
For Pisces it did say,
"If you would just be bolder,
Then this might be your day"
It said, "Lady Luck apologises
For the way she's been behavin'
And she promises she'll change.
If you don't want to know her, she'll understand,
But if you'd like to take her hand,
She could be back at your command."
So I ran round the corner,
The bookies there I entered
Put ten quid on a mare
From a stud in Kildare
But though the jockey beat her,
In Belgium they will eat her.
The tannoy began to rip as I tore up the slip
It said: "Lady Luck"
I met a girl this evening
And I began to think
That I might get her drunk
But she matched me drink for drink.
So when she drew the curtains,
I felt success was certain
But as she kicked me out,
She spoke in the third person
She said: "Lady Luck

I cant free you, only plea you

Do you know, do you know youve lost the fight
Cause well use you, and abuse you

And our last chance to find a way

When tomorrow we all could die

Fellow
since you are selfish
not wanting to share
your fish
your loaf
your coffee
i decided to imagine that
you do not exist
not even air
which still occupies
space
& weight a matter of my discretion
that is
all too personal
from now on i decided to rely upon
my fish
my own loaf of bread
my own coffee
my own jumping heart in that
Mount of Olives
from now on i go my way
that way
this way
all the way
i have nothing to lose
i am nothing
to you, but let me try my own way
who knows
with the blessings of Lady
Luck
who knows that i can also be
everything
to this and that
whatever that fate brings
on a tray
of fortune.

Wheel of Fortune
We spin the wheel of fortune,
never knowing where it might stop,
or how our live will feel its effect.
Whether it be love, money or luck.
We leave fate to guide us
to wherever that might be.
We can only hope that lady luck
will stand beside us,
as we play the game of chance.

Sweet Country Calling
(clarke / sylvester / hicks)
Going down to take a ride on the rock island line
Im gonna meet an old friend of mine
Its gonna be a fine ride if only I can hide
From the man who guards the freighting line
Ive got two thousand miles to go where I want to be
Lady luck stay with me
I wanna be there
I gotta be there
Oh, sweet country calling, calling me its way
Come and bathe in cool clear waters, wash the city dirt away
Oh, sweet country calling, Ive got something to say
When I get back to you, I wont let you down
This time Im gonna stay
I wanna hear, hear the bluegrass
I wanna breathe in the mountain air
I gotta take in all that moonshine
But most of all I wanna see a friend of mine
Last time I saw her she was waving me goodbye
Heading on down the line
She said come on along, I decided to stay
Now I know I was wrong
Thats why Im playing with fate riding this freight
Lady luck please stay with me
I wanna be there
I gotta be there

The Facts of Love
Everything is only a theory,
Until it has been proven.
So what is love?
Is it found, or is it grown?
Find a partner, pick them up,
Sounds to me like lady luck.
Love can only become fact,
Once it has been proven.
I would die for love.
I would die to my ways.
True love submits to another.
True lust makes another submit.
You can only find it,
Once you become it.
Love is not what we can get.
Love is only what we can give.
You cannot give what you don't have.
Love is not merely chance.
Love is not luck.
For luck will run out.
Love has no end.
It is simply a beginning that grows forever.
