lyrics

LUCK AIN’T CHASIN’ ME
I've tried a crystal ball that didn't help at all
Tried makin’ potions in my kitchen sink that didn't work I don't think
I prayed out loud I prayed in vain tried everything I racked my brain
Even tried slowin’ down to wait but luck ain’t chasin’ luck ain’t chasin’ me

Chorus
Sometimes it feels like there's no hope in hell
I wonder was it something that I did?
Losing my mind trying to break the spell
I'm down on my knees oh luck ain’t chasin luck ain’t chasin me

I've loved and I have lost piece of my heart always the cost
Got bruises from playing the game some call ‘em growing pains
Oh how much more before I break? I'm not asking much for heaven's sake
Just a little change of scenery oh luck ain’t chasin luck ain’t chasin me

I thought of falling stars been combing the sky but not a single one has caught my eye
Those stars make their own light maybe I'll start making mine?
