Mark Knopfler - Get Lucky
I am better with my muscles
Than I am with my mouth
I work the fair grounds in the summer
Or go pick fruit down south
And when I feel them chilly winds
Where the weather goes I'll follow
Pack up my travelling things
Go with the swallows
And I might get Lucky now and then
You win some
I might get lucky now and then
You win some
I wake up every morning
Keep an eye on what I spend
Got to think about eating
Got to think about paying the rent
I always think it's funny
It gets me every time
And what about happiness for money?
Tell it to the breadline
But you might get Lucky now and then
You win some
You might get Lucky now and then
Yeah you win some
Now I'm a rambling through this meadow
Happy as a man can be
Think I'll just lay me down
Under this old tree
On and on we go
Through this old world a shuffling
If you've got a truffle dog
You can go truffling
And you might get Lucky now and then
You win some
You might get Lucky now and then
Yeah you win some
