Hard luck woman (Stanley) [3:40, 3440 kB]


If never I met you
I'd never have seen you cry
If not for our first hello
We'd never have to say goodbye

If never I'd held you
My feelings would never show
It's time I start walking but
There's so much you will never know

I keep tellin' you hard luck woman
You ain't a hard luck woman

Rags, the sailor's only daughter
A child of the water, too proud to be a queen
Rags, I really love you, I can't forget about you
You'll be a hard luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

Before I go, let me kiss you
And wipe the tears from your eyes
I don't want to hurt you girl
You know I could never lie

I keep tellin' you hard luck woman
You ain't a hard luck woman
You'll be a hard luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

Rags, the sailor's only daughter
A child of the water, too proud to be a queen
Rags, I really love you, I can't forget about you
You'll be a hard luck woman
Baby, 'til you find your man

Comment
This Kiss cover, on which I sing both lead vocals, was recorded sometime in the summer of 2000, for an album full of Kiss-covers, 'Tribute to Kiss', by Jean Louis Goossens and friends. Just like 'Songs for #cybersex', 'Tribute to Kiss' (released 2001) was recorded in the Flowerhouse.

This song, by the way, was originally written for Rod Stewart, who refused it. Which is why Kiss decided to record it themselves. It also features on an album called 'Kiss my ass', on which it is sung by Garth Brooks.
