lyrics

“Lookin’ at Luckey”
words and music by Bradley Wik

Her real name was Sophi, but they all just called her “Luckey”
Cause they knew just what she was good for
And she was already kind of famous
And I was new to New York

She was in love with the Chaos, the Confusion and the Noise
And she loved all the attention from the desperate Boys
And she never went out on Fridays, the crowds weren’t right
She loved all the last chance romance of a Saturday Night…

She came on kind of heavy and burned out way too early
Here’s Lookin’ at Luckey…

And when the Cigarettes and Dreams just weren’t quite enough
That’s when she met this guy who turned her on to the harder stuff
She said she’d rather feel numb than feel all the pain
And when she started coming down, that’s when she started up again…

When I met her we danced beneath that mysterious glow
When the Moonlight mixed with the Streetlight, it was kind of magical…

She came on kind of heavy and burned out way too early
Yeah, Here’s Lookin’ at Luckey
She started so strong but fell behind early
Here’s Lookin’ at Luckey

In her drunken haze all the boys, they all seemed so cool
But in the morning they turned back into people that she already knew
She moved in and out of bars, and she moved in and out of cars
She was just trying to find a safe place to sleep…

She liked the thought of being somebody else
That’s why the name it never bothered her, it kind of helped
No matter who was with her she always felt so alone
And I thought that I could save her, but man, I should’ve known
I should’ve known…

Her real name was Sophi
Her real name was Sophi
But Here’s Lookin’ at Luckey…

about

Bradley Wik and the Charlatans Charlotte, North Carolina

Your ears are ringing as you pour yourselves out of the bar and into the street, still laughing.
The moon is bright in the night sky and the way it mixes with the streetlights makes you see each other in a way you’ve missed for the last few years. In that moment, all the hard times fade away. She smiles and grabs your hand as you think to yourself, “Some Girls Still Love Rock N’ Roll…” ... more
