Mark Heard — When His Luck Runs Out lyrics

Lyrics

He is a lucky man
He’s got things
He’s got two of anything you could name
Two Cadillacs
Two homes
Too many friends
He is never alone
If there’s one thing a lucky man don’t need
It’s a doubt
Just one step away from being down and out
Where’s he gonna be when his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs, luck runs, luck runs out
He buys caviar
He buys wine
He buys Japanese businessmen’s time
Black cigarettes
Rolled up in France
A skosh of extra room
In the seat of his pants
When he throws a party
Well you better come out
Listen to everybody wonder
While he sings and shouts
Where’s he gonna be when his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs, luck runs, luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs, luck runs, luck runs out
Lady luck, she’s a top-notch babe
She give and give
'Til you got it made
Like I said, she’s a hot-shot
She got what it takes
To take what you’ve got
She’s a religion and the man’s devout
But she can leave him praying in the poor house
Where’s he gonna be when his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs, luck runs, luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs, luck runs, luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out
When his luck runs out, luck runs out
Luck runs, luck runs, luck runs out…
