Lyrics
Lucky (Hem)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a man in a cutaway
Buying drinks for the room
All the cheer raining down on the day
Comes to nothing and leaves by the broom
On the streets named for presidents
Where the kingfishers flew
All the cornflowers sewn in the fence
Keep the memory from tearing in two
But if I should lose
I'd wake up feeling lucky
If I should take a fall
or throw it all away
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
The rest of my days
The Storms came down out of Machinaw
As the weigh stations closed
There was a terrible darkness I saw
Pulling up on the side of the road
But if I should lose
I'd wake up feeling lucky
If I should take a fall
or throw it all away
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
The rest of my days
So I'll drink to the wealthy man
And I'll pray for the poor
And I'll hold onto you while I can
In the darkness just to be sure
That if I should lose
I'll wake up feeling lucky
If I should take a fall
or throw it all away
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
The rest of my days
