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

Roll the dice, a turn of the wheel
It's my turn to call

If it weren't for hard luck
I'd have no luck at all

Chorus:

Hard luck's got a hold on me
I bet against the odds

Hard luck's comin' down on me
It's in the fall of the cards
Hard luck

The night's my savior, she keeps me in the dark
A bad shot, it seems I'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)
