the luckiest guy on the lower east side

andy would bicycle across town

in the rain to bring you candy

and john would buy the gown

for you to wear to the prom

with tom the astronomer

who'd name a star for you

but i'm the luckiest guy

on the lower east side

'cause i've got wheels

and you want to go for a ride

harry is the one i think you'll marry

but it's chris that you kissed after school

well

i'm a fool

there's no doubt

but when the sun comes out

and only when the sun comes out

i'm the luckiest guy

on the lower east side

'cause i've got wheels

and you want to go for a ride

the day is beautiful and so are you

my car is ugly but then i'm ugly too

i know you'd never give me a second glance

but when the weather's nice all the other guys don't stand a chance

i know professor blumen makes you feel like a woman

but when the wind is in your hair you laugh like a little girl

so you share secrets with lou

but we've got secrets too

well

one: i only keep this heap for you

'cause i'm the ugliest guy

on the lower east side

but i've got wheels

and you want to go for a ride

want to go for a ride?

want to go for a ride?

want to go for a ride?
