about

The lady—Risa Branch, that is— sings this old blues anthem about a woman of misfortune.

lyrics

UNLUCKY WOMAN

I was born on a Friday, married on a Friday, too
Hmm, said I was born on a Friday, married on a Friday, too
But I never had no back luck 'til the day I met you

I don't want no more lovin', I'd rather be all alone
No i don't want no more lovin', said I'd rather be all alone
So when my paycheque comes around, I can call my money my own

Love is just a gamble, it's just like shootin' dice
But it's my bad luck that I got snake eyes twice
I'm an unlucky woman, I guess I was born that way
If any man can change my luck, he can move right in today

[Instrumental]

I don't want no excuses, said I'm sick of your crap
You can cry me a river, 'cause I'll never take you back
I learned my lesson
I learned it just in time
Bad luck will never leave me, 'til I cross you off my mind

[Instrumental]

I'm an Unlucky Woman
I guess I was born that way
And if any man can change my luck, he can move right in today
