Unlucky - Blues MAMA Original

Unlucky - Blues MAMA Original

This is about power reclaimed for women. Men who engage in "casual" sex are studs while the double standard runs wild and free... i.e. Women who do the same are considered of "lower moral character". Unlucky presents the other side of that equation. Laugh out loud, it's a naughty and fun song!

We truly hope you like this little diversion... Ty wrote the guitar part - a synthesis of his Django Reinhardt and Swing phases - and of course it screamed out for a clarinet (at least, to me) Sooo I've had one for a while, but I hadn't quite picked it up yet. So I literally had to learn to play clarinet for this song. I'd only been 'actually' playing for a day when I recorded this... so don't judge the clarinet too harshly! =o)

Ladies, it's not about objectifying women - it's about the power of the taunt... Gentlemen, you know you love it! Just remember ladies, you can stand on your own... if you're 'unlucky' then move on.
UNLUCKY [lyrics]
I saw you walk in from across the room
You took no time to find me under the moon
And the honey dripped from your silvered liars tongue....
To you, I was... a song unsung.
Heard you cant keep a good man down
Well thats just fine, but I can
Do anything when I make up my mind

And lemme tell you whats on my mind...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...

And they say a good man is...
Ooooohhh soooo hard to find
So I dont think Ill go looking for love, anymore
But if it shows up at my door well... Oooooh
I know that a hard man is
Ooooohhh soooo good to find,
Then sent on down the line...
Cause Im doin just fine.

Lemme tell you whats on my mind...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...

You were sweet as sugar
Hard as rock candy
You were...oh so dandy
But its time you were movin on
Cuz I done sung you my...
Oooooooh, ooooooooh,
Oooooooohmy song

This is whats on my mind...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...
No I wont be unlucky a third time...

Not one more time
Baby move on
Move on down the line,
Cause Im doing just fine
