LUCKY

Oh what I wouldn't give to be like you,
lucky in life and everything you do.
You'll say its naturally found,
would you move me towards that common ground?

So I cut the tails from three blind mice,
then I threw out the liars dice.
Pushed the window when I heard a voice,
saying, I'd help you out if I had the choice.

To be lucky like you,
lucky like you,
Blessed in life and everything you do.

Lucky like you,

lucky like you,
Blessed in love and everything you do.

Well I cast off some old gypsy spell,
then I threw a diamond at your well.
Paid for a secret that money couldn't buy,
and wore your shoes till it went awry. 

I stood there naked swearing on the alter,
sold the thing to make most men falter.
Thing bout luck is it can change if you can,
and lord I know I'll be a fortunate man.
