Lyrics
My lucky star fell out of the sky
Loss of fortune or positive circumstances
Right before my wishin' well went dry
Unfortunate events coinciding, leading to a depleted source of hope or fulfillment
Seems every which way I go
Encountering difficulties or obstacles in various directions
There's a black cat crossin' the road
Symbolic of persistent negative influences or bad omens
I played the lottery with last month's rent
Attempting luck with financial risk, using last month's rent
I'm still waitin' on my ship to come in
Waiting for positive outcomes, possibly related to a metaphorical "ship"
Bad luck was always hangin' around
Consistently experiencing misfortune
c good roll was always lettin' me down
Positive outcomes were rare and disappointing
I had every reason in the world to give up
Considering giving up due to numerous challenges
But you came along and now it's gone so long
The arrival of someone special has changed the streak of bad luck
Bad luck
Summarizes the overall theme of persistent bad luck
My first love said she'd love me for life
Abandonment by the first love without a proper farewell
Slipped out one night never told me goodbye
A repeat of heartbreak, emphasizing the transient nature of love
My second love convinced me love again
A new love promising a fresh start
Then she left me for my best friend
Betrayal as the new love leaves for the narrator's best friend
My third and fourth went crazy as hell
Subsequent relationships turn chaotic
I even bought a rabbit's foot but that didn't help
Superstitious attempts to ward off bad luck, unsuccessful with a rabbit's foot
Bad luck was always hangin' around
Reiteration of the persistent presence of bad luck
c good roll was always lettin' me down
Continued disappointment despite occasional positive events
I had every reason in the world to give up
Contemplating giving up due to overwhelming challenges
But you came along and now it's gone so long
The arrival of a special person changes the course of bad luck
Bad luck
Reiteration of the persistent presence of bad luck
You're my lucky four-leaf clover
Symbolic references to luck and good fortune associated with a loved one
Horseshoe over my shoulder
Additional symbols of luck, suggesting protection from misfortune
Seven come eleven girl, I'm lucky I found you
A stroke of luck in finding a special person
Bad luck was always hangin' around
Reiteration of the persistent presence of bad luck
c good roll was always lettin' me down
Continued disappointment despite occasional positive events
I had every reason in the world to give up
Contemplating giving up due to overwhelming challenges
But you came along and now it's gone so long
The arrival of a special person changes the course of bad luck
Bad luck
Reiteration of the persistent presence of bad luck
