about

Goes without saying, I think. Happy, cheery, beer-hall sing-along about how great it is to be alive.

lyrics

We Are All Born Lucky ©2012 Jay Spears Music ASCAP

We are all born lucky, we're all born lucky
I was born lucky, same as you.
At times I used to doubt it, but there's no doubt about it
We are all born lucky and you know it's true.

I know a gentle man who grew a lump in his head
I know him pretty well because he sleeps in my bed.
He's okay now, but he coulda been dead
He was born lucky just like I said.

We are all born lucky....

Think of all the lucky ducks through all the years
Who had to get lucky just for us to be here.
A dirty little secret but you know it's true:
Your daddy got lucky and yo momma did too! Do you feel lucky?

Lucky at cards, lucky in love
I'd rather be lucky than good you see so
Stand over here real close and we'll see
If some of your luck will rub off on me.

We are all born lucky....
