Remember when Garth Brooks teamed up with this crew of rock n' roll icons?

Check out Garth Brooks performing “Hard Luck Woman” alongside KISS on The Tonight Show hosted by Jay Leno in 1994. Fans may recall that the Oklahoma native recorded a version of the 1976 KISS track for a tribute album called KISS My Ass, which honored the lively rock band. He was the only artist from the country genre to be featured on the 12-track project.

Check out Brooks performing live with KISS below!

Garth actually has a pretty decent rock n’ roll vocal delivery.

Hard Luck Woman Lyrics

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 feeling’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 ya
I can’t forget about ya
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 want to 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 ya
I can’t forget about ya
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, whoa, 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
