i'm just lucky that way

well i cussed out my boss

huh

and got fired

then i hit the lottery

and now i'm retired

the odds of that happening

slim to none

but i wasn't surprised when i won

it happens everyday

i'm just lucky that way

i'm not bragging

don't take it like that

but good things just seem to fall in my lap

my good fortune

i can not help

i'm just lucky

in spite of myself

it happens everyday

i'm just lucky that way

friends and relations

knockin' on my door

not to mentions folks

i've never seen before

got my phone number changed

had it taken

out of the book

still my phone keeps ringin'

off the hook

my luck's so good

it's a crying shame

i have to move up the country

i have to change my name

it happens everyday

i win when i play

i'm just lucky that way

yeah

you know i win when i play

i'm just lucky

that way
