[Verse 1]
Roll the dice, roll them twice
My, my can you spare a dime?
Ooh, snake eyes, the lady flies
My, my, my
She's so hard to find

[Chorus]
Ooh, lady luck, yeah, lady luck
Ooh, my lady luck, oh, my lady luck

[Verse 2]
Now what went wrong?
I've been here too long
Can you spare a dime?
Luck's disguised
In her eyes
Oh, my lady's so hard to find

[Outro/Chorus]
Oh, lady luck, yeah, lady luck
Oh, my lady luck, oh, my lady luck
Lady. She's gone. The lady, she's gone
Oh my lady[x2]
Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo[x2
My lady, luck

Journey is an American rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1973, composed of former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch. The band has gone through several phases; its strongest commercial success occurred while fronted by vocalist Steve Perry, from 1978 until the group’s disbandment in 1987. During that period, the band released a series of hit songs, including 1981’s “Don’t Stop Believin'”, which in 2009 became the top-selling track in iTunes history amongst songs not released in the 21st century. Its parent studio album, Escape, the band’s eighth and most successful, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and yielded another of their most popular singles, “Open Arms”. Its 1983 follow-up album, Frontiers, was almost as successful in the United States, reaching No. 2 and spawning several successful singles; it broadened the band’s appeal in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart. Journey enjoyed a successful reunion with Perry in the mid-1990s and later regrouped with a series of lead singers.
