Crowes Black Sister Luck Lyrics

Sister Luck Lyrics

Worried sick my eyes are hurting

To rest my head I'd take a life

Outside the girls are dancing

'Cause when you're down it just don't seem right



Feeling second fiddle to a dead man

Up to my neck with your disregard

Like a beat dog that's walking on the broadway

No one wants to hear you when you're down



  Sister luck is screaming out 

  Somebody else's name

  Sister luck is screaming out

  Somebody else's name



A flip of a coin

Might make a head turn

No surprise, who sleeps

Held my hand over a candle

Flame burnin' but I never weep



  Sister luck is screaming out 

  Somebody else's name

  Sister luck is screaming out

  Somebody else's name



  What a shame



(Repeat 2nd Chorus)







Could I've Been So Blind



How could I've been so blind

So empty that I've never felt warm

Can I spell it out

Turn myself out of my home

Lookin' like a fool

Feelin' even worse than it seems

Tryin' hard as nails

Belevin' only in myself



And now it looks like innocence is gone

I know right and I know what's wrong

Feeling lonely that's the way it goes

Sometimes



But my greatest fear

Paint a smile from ear to ear

Alone and cryin'

Living like this is no better than dying



I tell you baby things are gonna' change

Looking like we were caught out in the rain

Feeling lonely

That's the way it goes

Sometimes



Chorus:



  Could I ever have been so blind

  Could I ever have been so blind

  Could I ever have been so blind

  Could I ever have been so blind



  Solo

  Could I ever have been so blind

  Could I ever have been so blind



Hardest thing I ever had to do

Was stand up straight and tell it all to you

Look you right in the eye

Tell you baby sorry but I have lied



And now it looks like innocence is gone

I know right and I know what's wrong

Feeling lonely that's the way it goes

Sometimes



(Repeat Chorus 4 times
