Misc Unsigned Bands
The Hustler by Don Kesson
From the album Drinking With The Angels
Written by Charlie Sharkey

I got lucky on a midnight train, turned up aces in a poker game
I won some money but I lost my heart, travelling down south on a one-way cart

She was wild as a rambling rose, where she's going no-one knows
A gamblers life is laced with sin, some you lose and some you win

Lady luck was shining down on me,       when we took that train down to Tennessee
Lady luck was shining down on me,       when we crossed that bridge into Tennessee

The moon was shining in the southern sky, endless stations rolling by
You stop for a while in a one horse town, you got up quickly before the wall came down

She was smiling in the morning rain, a Memphis belle without a name
The dealer turned a one eyed jack, the money I lost I just won back

Lady luck was shining down on me,       when we took that train down to Tennessee
Lady luck was shining down on me,       when we crossed that bridge into Tennessee

     ,      
       ,        

Nice full skyline on the rise, could see her distance in her eyes
I went all in on an aces high, she turned up queens and said goodbye

The country station was playing low, cheating heart on the radio
She got up without a care; she left me standing, standing there

Lady luck was shining down on me,       when we took that train down to Tennessee
Lady luck was shining down on me,       when we crossed that bridge into Tennessee
Lady luck has just run out on me, and she's closed the deal down in Tennessee
She closed the deal down in Tennessee, lady luck has just run out on me.
