Doc Watson - Tough Luck Man Lyrics

Doc Watson Lyrics

"Tough Luck Man"

Every man gets in tough luck sometime
When he ain't got a nickel, not a dime, Lord
I hope I'll be lucky some ol' day

My woman, she just don't care for me
Since she found out I'm broke as I can be, but
I hope I'll be lucky some ol' day

Gonna work on that new rail line
Every hour, I make a dollar and a dime and
I hope I'll be lucky some ol' day

If I gamble and lose, I play fair
If I gamble and lose, boys, I don't care, yes
I hope I'll be lucky some ol' day

And I hope I'll be lucky some ol' day, Lord
And I hope I'll be lucky some ol' day
