GOODBYE HARD LUCK STREET
(c) 2022 Meg Tennant

I wandered down Hard Luck Street
I knew it was a dead end
After miles and miles looking down at my feet
A light came round the bend
Brighter than the morning sun
It lit up the trees
It told me to seize the day

I picked up all my sadnesses
And headed into the light
I kept on walking toward the west
My back to the darkest night
I cried "Help me let my sorrows go
I wanna fly free"
I dreamed it was easy

Goodbye Hard Luck Street
I'll no longer be your fool
You can keep your bad times and your blues
Goodbye Hard Luck Street
I'll be on my merry way
I'll leave you to your dark and stormy days

I must have cried a million tears
Thinking happiness would never find me
Hard Luck Street was my home for years
I sang that sad melody
It took so long for me to learn
You make your own misery
All those sad memories

Goodbye Hard Luck Street
I'll no longer be your fool
You can keep your bad times and your blues
Goodbye Hard Luck Street
I'll be on my merry way
I'll leave you to your dark and stormy days

Hey hey hey
I'm walking away

Goodbye Hard Luck Street
I'll no longer be your fool
You can keep your bad times and your blues
Goodbye Hard Luck Street
I'll be on my merry way
I'll leave you to your dark and stormy days
Yeah I'll leave you to your dark and stormy days
