Rod Stewart — Lady Luck

[Verse 1] Lady Luck, here I am on time Proppin' up the bar with a glass of wine Friday night and I'm all spruced up and fine I ain't goin' nowhere, nowhere [Verse 2] Lady Luck, why don't you pull up a chair And bring your shine right wisdom, darlin', over here? Your Gaelic humor and your pious smile All the cats'll be laugin' tonight [Chorus] Now you may say it's a funny old world You may say that the game ain't fair Is there a plot or do you improvise? Or maybe you don't even care [Verse 3] Lady Luck, ain't you the fickle kind Why are some folks lucky while the rest are tryin'? You keep on playin', it's still a mystery You're laced with a touch of inconsistency [Chorus] So why don't you give us all a break? Make us all rich, healthy and fine Five months holidays and a four hour week And a horse that wins all the time [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] Lady Luck, hear the mandolins Kind of makes you wonder how it might have been There go all the funny place I've got Back on the street again [Verse 5] Lady Luck, yeah, it's late I know Allow me to buy you one more folderol And tell me something I've been longin' to hear It's gotta get better next year [Chorus] 'Cause I've seen some rainy days My wedding suits are frayed and torn But now the sun comes shining through I've cried in my beer too long [Outro] Lady Luck, Lady Luck Don't push me over When I can't stand up, oh yeah Sure it's a funny old world Sure it's a funny old world
