"LADY LUCK"

Lady Luck is rich,
But she's cruel as a witch,
One day you're livin' high
And the next you're in the ditch.
I chased the mighty buck
And I courted Lady Luck,
Caught within her trap at the Casino.

Gambling was my dream
And I served the Gambling Queen,
Sometimes she'd let me win,
Then she'd take it back again.
She'd build my hopes up high,
Then break me every time,
Caught within her trap at the Casino,
Caught within her trap at the Casino.

Chorus:
And now I'm free, free,
Free from the Gambling Queen.
The Lady had to flee
'Cause your love rescued me.
Free from all her vice,
Free from tossin' dice,
Free from Lady Luck and the Casino,
Free from Lady Luck and the Casino.

Lady Luck the Queen
Was the one behind the scene,
The spirit in control
Who vexed my weary soul.
But deep inside of me,
I longed to be set free,
Free from sorcery at the Casino,
Free from sorcery at the Casino.

Bridge:
With words of Truth to tell,
You came and brake her spell,
The love-light in your eyes
Then made me realize,
There must be some thing more,
Something to live for,
Some thing more beyond the door of the Casino,
Some thing more beyond the door of the Casino.

Chorus:
And now I'm free, free,
Free from the Gambling Queen.
The Lady had to flee
'Cause your love rescued me.
Free from all her vice,
Free from tossin' dice,
Free from Lady Luck and the Casino.

Chorus:
Free, free,
Free from the Gambling Queen.
The Lady had to flee
'Cause your love rescued me.
Free from all her vice,
Free from tossin' dice,
Free from Lady Luck and the Casino.

[Girls:] Free from the Casino
[All:] Free from Lady Luck...and the Casino.
