lyrics

She don't want peace
she don't have mercy
for gambling drifters like me
and I never learned
but I have seen
the sorrow drain from her eye

And it isn't fair
the way I left her there
begging for my ghost
and where I'll go
only the devil knows
it's just hard luck I suppose

She sees the stars
for what they really are
there's no illusion in her sky
the things she needs
how could I ever bring
or mend with these broken hands

And it isn't right
the things we do at night
haunt us all our days
and where she'll go
only the devil knows
it's just hard luck I suppose

She said she knew
what she done wrong
and that I could not
name my sins
was the dope to blame
or was it just the the pain
I doubt we'll ever an answer

And it isn't true
those things I done to you
were never in my favor
how this all turns out
I guess it's up to the devil now
it's just hard luck I suppose
