Hard Luck Woman © John Kenney - 2017 https://soundcloud.com/j-kenney/hard-luck-woman-faster-mixJust a hard luck woman Living her life alone Painted eyes half baptized Surviving in the border zone All the fools along the way watch her pass on by Who’s to say what harm’s been done Behind those little white lies Cry, cry, cry, leave her be no one tries to find out why So sad eyes are all they’ll see My, my, my ain’t she strange But if you look away a bit too soon you might miss what still remains (Lead) Just a hard luck woman rolling from town to town No heads up or time to plan No chance to be let down So if you dare to take a stab At wrestling with the sky you might get close if you dare or your chance might pass you by Cry, cry, cry, don’t you see Too few try to find out why Something never was meant to be My, my, my she’s so strange But if you turn your head a bit too soon you’re gonna miss what still remains _CSWNGBA: Country Swing Slow Ballad Bass 572:Bass,Electric,,Blues BB EV 85 Organ 675:Organ,B3,Background Blues Monday Sw 65 RealDrums = NashvilleSwing8^1=Snare,Ride 1924:Guitar,Electric,Rhythm TexasBluesRockSlow 12-8SolSw060 626:Harmonica,Background Travis Ev 085

Further you progressed with the song the more comfortable your vocals sound. A nice little groove going on here. I particularly enjoyed the chorus. Good going on this. Rob

Thank you kindly, Sir I have to keep an eye on My Robert Zimmerman tendencies Sometimes it makes me a little tentative

What a tune! I really love the "sultry" sort of atmosphere this one has. It's dark and mysterious in a way. Also, I like the artwork you chose for this too. Great work on this - thanks for sharing, jyonks

Excellent! Some cool slightly menacing images in the lyrics - and your vocal sounds really good- in the pocket for this laid back style. The understated backing is just right.

Very nice. Has a bit of a J.J. Cale feel - thoroughly enjoyable.

Really enjoyed this, and the use of the harmonica has a captured a blues feel very well.
In particular, verse 1 opens up with really great lyrics:
- Just a hard luck woman - Living her life alone - Painted eyes half baptized - Surviving in the border zone
Nice job.

Peter Hi John, I agree with the J.J. Cale reference. I also hear a little bit of Leon Redbone ... and for me, that's really cool! The vocal harmonies are great and really give the song some added punch. Love the edge in this ... cool song! Alan

"Just a hard luck woman Living her life alone Painted eyes half baptized Surviving in the border zone"
Well, that certainly locked us in from the git-go. Great lines.
You left just the right amount of dots for the listener to connect to build the imagery.
You did a fine job of getting ev and sw RT's to work together and work well. That doesn't always happen.
The nice laid back vocal certainly contributes to the aforementioned JJ feel. We are big fans of his music.
Enjoyed the spin!
J&B

This totally transports me to a bar with a smokey haze filling the room with a sultry performance of this song playing. It definitely has a very smooth sound to it. Thanks for sharing.
