Get Lucky (Mark Knopfler) (4.33)
LYRICSI’m better with my muscles
than I am with my mouth
I’ll work the fairgrounds 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 spent
Got to think about eating
got to think about paying the rent
I always think it’s funny –
gets me every time
The one about happiness and money –
tell it to the bread line
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 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
