Letra de When Your Luck Ran Out

City streets are poison
For a country girl like you
Smoke filled rooms and petrol fumes
Hanging around with the desperate crew
Blinded by the bright lights
Sweet seduction steals your will
You fell too quick for that three card trick
Now they’re coming around to collect their bills
But there was nobody there
When your luck ran out
No-one who cared
No-one there to carry you through
The darkness and despair
And your dope scene friends
They picked you up
And tossed you down again
They left you lying there
When your luck ran out
Too far gone to care
Country town can’t hold you
When you’ve seen the world out there
They shut up shop at eight o’clock
And you want to break out but there’s nowhere
The town hall clock strikes midnight
And you’re waiting for the train
You leave your home and all your friends
And don’t come back again
Smokey haze sets the stage
For a one-act tragedy
Junkie’s binge and an old syringe
Snow-white misery
The stagnant gloom of a rented room
Sees you limp against the wall
You pushed your luck a bit too much
And missed your curtain call
