Lyrics
La-lady luck ain't playing on my side
Fortune or luck isn't favoring the speaker
La-lady luck ain't smiling down
Luck isn't in a positive or supportive state
La-lady luck don't care about my pride
Luck doesn't consider or value the speaker's pride
La-lady luck lay, lays it down
Luck has a way of asserting itself
I get this feeling I can dream tonight
The speaker feels optimistic or hopeful
Yeah, I've been seeing all the signs
The speaker notices promising indications
A dream no one can dream to undermine
A dream that's unassailable or cannot be undermined
This time I am gonna get it right
Determination to succeed this time
La-lady luck ain't playing on my side
Reiteration that luck isn't on the speaker's side
La-lady luck ain't smiling down
Emphasizing the lack of luck or fortune
La-lady luck don't care about my pride
Reinforcing luck's indifference to the speaker's pride
La-lady luck lay, lays it down
Highlighting luck's control or dominance
Sometimes I wish I could anesthetize
Desire to numb emotional pain
Bring up the lows, bring down the highs
Seeking balance in emotions
She is the one I need to sympathize
Desire for empathy or understanding
She is the one who sees me cry
Recognition of luck as the witness to vulnerability
And I've been waiting for her day and night
Awaited anticipation for luck's arrival
I know my lady is around
Belief in the presence of luck
I would put everything I have on the line
Willingness to take significant risks for luck
I won't get better odds than now
Recognition of a favorable opportunity
La-lady luck ain't playing on my side
Reiteration of lack of favorable luck
La-lady luck ain't smiling down
Re-emphasizing the absence of a positive luck factor
La-lady luck don't care about my pride
Highlighting luck's indifference to pride
La-lady luck lay, lays it down
Emphasizing luck's authority or power
It ain't something you can synthesize
Stating that luck cannot be artificially created
It ain't something you can buy
Luck cannot be purchased
Ain't got nothing to do with wrong and right
Luck is not about morality
Got everything to do with time
Emphasis on luck's connection to timing
La-lady luck you saved my life tonight
Attributing luck to saving the speaker
La-lady luck I owe you now
Feeling indebted to luck
La-lady luck I'll be a better guy
Commitment to improve due to luck
La-lady, I'll share your luck around
Willingness to share good fortune
La-lady luck is standing by my side
Indication that luck is now supporting the speaker
La-lady luck won't let me drown
Luck won't allow the speaker to fail
La-lady luck shows me a better sign
Luck is providing positive guidance or omens
La-lady luck lay, lays it down
Reiteration of luck's influence or control
