Lucky One

Verse 1
You're the lucky one,
so I've been told.
As free as a wind blowin' down the road.
Loved by many,
hated by none.
I'd say you were lucky 'cause I know what you've done.
Not a care in the world, not a worry in sight,
Everything's gonna be alright,
Cause you're the lucky one.
(Verse #2)
You're the lucky one,
always havin' fun.
A jack of all trades,
a master of none.
You look at the world with a smilin' eye,
and laugh at the devil as his train rolls by.
give you a song and a one night stand,
and you'll be lookin' at a happy man,
Cause you're the lucky one.
(Chorus)
Well, you're blessed, I guess
by never knowin' which road you're choosing.
To you the next best thing to playin' and winnin'
is playin' and losing.
(Verse #3)
You're the lucky one,
I know that now.
Don't ask you why, when, where or how.
You look at the world through your smilin' eye,
and laugh at the devil as his train rolls by.
give you song and a one night stand,
and you'll be lookin' at a happy man.
Cause you're the lucky one.
Break
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse #4)
You're the lucky one,
I know that now.
Don't ask you why, when, where or how.
No matter where you're at,
That's where you'll be.
You can bet your luck won't follow me.
Just give you a song and a one night stand,
you'll be lookin' at a happy man.
Cause you're the lucky one.
