got lucky last night

well

i was down at the cotton club last night

with a couple of my buddies drinking beer

we were lookin' for something i ain't never seen

boys

i'm grinnin' from ear to ear

when i see her long legs come walking in the door

and her high heels clicking on the floor

i knew right then i'd be headin' in

to something i ain't never seen before

that's right i got lucky last night

that's right

yea

i'm telling you true

it could happen to you

i got lucky last night

well

i took my hands out of my pants

and walked up and asked her to dance

oh

we two-stepped

we three-stepped

'fore you even know it

we were tighter than old jimmy j's pants

ain't nothing to learn

one slide or a turn

with a big move over to the side

where we don't have to shout

and we can both figure out

how we're gonna get away from here light

that's right lucky last night

that's right

yea

i'm telling you true

it could happen to you

i got lucky last night

oh

that's right

that's right

i got lucky last night

that's right

i'm telling you true

it could happen to you

i got lucky last night

well

this lovely lady with keys to a car

whispered she didn't live far

i said who cares

she said how come chum

we don't skate out of this bar

so we dosi-doed

we grand right and left

and grabbed two six-packs from the bar

while some fool sang goodnight irene

i mean we both gone in the car
