Well, I woke up this morning, stumbled out of my rack
I opened up the paper to the page in the back
It only took a minute for my finger to find
My daily dose of destiny under my sign
My eyes just about popped out of my head
It said, "The Stars are stacked against you, girl get
back in bed."
Chorus:
I feel lucky, I feel lucky
No Professor Doom's gonna stand in my way
Mmmm, I feel lucky today
Well, I strolled down to the corner gave my numbers to
the clerk
The pot's 11 million, so I called in sick to work
I bought a pack of Camels, a burrito and a Barq's
Crossed against the light, made a beeline for the park
The sky began to thunder, the wind began to moan
I heard a voice above me saying "Girl you better get
back home."
Chorus:
But I feel lucky, I feel lucky
No tropical depression's gonna steal my sun away
Mmmm, I feel lucky today
Well, 11 million later I was sittin' at the bar
I bought the house a double and the waitress a new car
Dwight Yoakam's in the comer tryin' to catch my eye
Lyle Lovett's comin' over, I'm tryin' not to sigh
The moral of the story is simple but it's true
Hey, the stars might lie but the numbers never do
Chorus:
I feel lucky, I feel lucky, yeah
Hey Dwight, hey Lyle, boys you don't have to fight
Hot dog! I feel lucky tonight.
I feel lucky, I feel lucky
Eat your heart out Alvin, I'm a winner either way
Mmm, I feel lucky today.
