Lucky Man

[Verse 1]

Runnin' down the highway half-past eleven

Waitin' for my odometer to roll straight sevens

I'm a lucky man

I went to see the gypsy the other night

She looked in my palm, looked me in the eye

Said, "You're a lucky man"

Mmm, you're a lucky man

[Verse 2]

"Some folks got fortune, some got eyes of blue

What you got will always see you through

You're a lucky man"

Pa went from the army to the factory to the killin' yard

I make my livin' with my hands behind the wheel of this car

I'm a lucky man

Hmm, I'm a lucky man

Mmm, I'm a lucky man

[Verse 3]

Messin' with me, man, it wouldn't be wise

Roll them dice, son—ah, snake eyes

And I'm a lucky man

Had a girl in Calgary, I gave her up

Man, that love thing was messin' with my luck

And I'm a lucky man

[Verse 4]

I'll wake up tomorrow morning in another state

Kiss me now, baby, before it's too late

If you wanna kiss a lucky man

I don't miss no girl, I don't miss no home

He travels fastest who travels alone

He's a lucky man

Yeah, he's a lucky man

Woah, a lucky man

A man with the world in the palm of his hands
