Dr. Feelgood - One Step Forward lyrics

Well, they call her Lady Luck, but that beauty is a beast She gave me only famine, I'm still waiting for the feast I'm getting nowhere And nowhere is a bad place to be Try to help myself I just don't have the knack I'm taking one step forward And two steps back I can't pay the landlord, so I've got no place I want to be a winner, but someone fixed the race I've gone to nothing And nothing is a bad way to be I'm down instead of up I'm red insteaf of black I'm taking one step forward And two steps back I've got to check the dealer, that's all I can take If I try to climb the ladder I'll get swallowed by a snake I've got nothing And nothing ain't enough for me Got to take my lousy luck And drown it in a sack I'm taking one step forward And two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back One step forward, two steps back
