feeling lucky
(al parsons)

Got me some money
Feeling kind of blue
Put on your lucky dress
I’ll wear my lucky shoes
We’ll take a ride
Down to the race track
And try to win twice
Our money back

I’m feeling lucky
And I know we can’t lose
Gambling’s the game
Guaranteed to cure these blues

Put some money
On number nine
He’s doin’ good
But didn’t cross the line
I put the rest
On number ten to win
He might have made it
But he’s against the wind

I’m feeling lucky
And I know we can’t lose
Gambling’s the game
Guaranteed to cure these blues

One of these days
I’ll strike it rich
That won’t stop me
I still won’t quit
I’ll take the money
Put it in a bag
Grab your dress
Find my shoes
Head on back to the track

I’m feeling lucky
No way we can’t lose
Gambling’s the game
Guaranteed to cure these blues
Gambling’s the game
Guaranteed to cure these blues
Gambling’s my game
Guaranteed to cure these blues
