Lady Luck

Black Jack never was my game
That’s sadly clear to see
It’s why dealer calls me “24”
Whenever she looks at me.

Hit me hit me
There, I bust
Chips leaving just like loves long lost
And still I hold my chair
Waiting for Lady Luck to sit nearby
And greet me with success.
Instead the empty chair is taken
By new love
I’ll know it later
And for now just watch her smile,
Meet it with my own.

Hit me hit me
Lucky Lady kiss me
There I’m at 21
Again again
With you I win
For I surely cannot lose
And arm in arm
I realize how you’ve always been there
While Lady Luck holds her lovers close

Now sudden realization dawns:
Luck has got nothing to do with it
