If never I met you

I'd never have seen you cry

If not for our first "Hello"

We'd never have to say goodbye



If never I held you

My feelin's would never show

It's time I start walkin'

But there's so much you'll never know



I keep telling you hard luck woman

You ain't a hard luck woman



Rags, the sailor's only daughter

A child of the water

Too proud to be a queen



Rags, I really love you

I can't forget about you

You'll be a hard luck woman

Baby, till you find your man



Before I go let me kiss you

And wipe the tears from your eyes

I don't wanna hurt you, girl

You know I could never lie



I keep telling you hard luck woman

You ain't a hard luck woman

You'll be a hard luck woman

Baby, till you find your man



Rags, the sailor's only daughter

A child of the water

Too proud to be a queen



Rags, I really love you

I can't forget about you

You'll be a hard luck woman

Baby, till you find your man

You'll be a hard luck woman

Baby, till you find your man



Oh yeah, bye bye, so long, don't cry

I'm just packin' my bags, whoo, leavin' you

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye, baby, don't cry

I gotta keep on movin', yeah movin'

Bye, bye my baby

Ooh, don't cry, lady, oh
