(Betty Sue Perry)

It's just my luck to live when I'd much rather die
I'd end my life but I don't have the nerve to try
You're not worth the salt in each new tear I cry
And it's just my luck to love someone like you.

It's just my luck to find I gave my heart away
To a man who has no heart and treats me any old way
My first bad luck came when I was born one day
And it's just my luck to love someone like you.

Time after time this heart of mine you went and broke
Till love to me has come to be just a standing joke
You're not worth the salt in each new tear I cry
And it's just my luck to love someone like you till I die...
