I Feel Lucky
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"
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
No professor Doom's going to stand in my way
I feel lucky today
I strolled down to the corner, gave my numbers to the clerk
The pot's eleven million, so I called in sick to work
I bought a pack of Camels, a burrito, and a Barq's
I crossed against the light, made a beeline for the park
The sky began to rumble, the wind began to moan
I heard a voice above me saying, "Girl, you better get back home"
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
No tropical depression's gonna steal my sun away
I feel lucky today
Eleven million later, I was sitting at the bar
I'd bought the house a double and the waitress a new car
Dwight Yoakam's in the corner, and he's tryna catch my eye
Lyle Lovett's right beside me with his hand upon my thigh
The moral of this story, it's simple, but it's true
You know the stars might lie but the numbers never do
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
Hey Dwight, hey Lyle, boys, you don't have to fight, ooppa-doo
I feel lucky tonight
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
Think I'll flip a coin, I'm a winner either way
I feel lucky today
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"
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
No professor Doom's going to stand in my way
I feel lucky today
I strolled down to the corner, gave my numbers to the clerk
The pot's eleven million, so I called in sick to work
I bought a pack of Camels, a burrito, and a Barq's
I crossed against the light, made a beeline for the park
The sky began to rumble, the wind began to moan
I heard a voice above me saying, "Girl, you better get back home"
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
No tropical depression's gonna steal my sun away
I feel lucky today
Eleven million later, I was sitting at the bar
I'd bought the house a double and the waitress a new car
Dwight Yoakam's in the corner, and he's tryna catch my eye
Lyle Lovett's right beside me with his hand upon my thigh
The moral of this story, it's simple, but it's true
You know the stars might lie but the numbers never do
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
Hey Dwight, hey Lyle, boys, you don't have to fight, ooppa-doo
I feel lucky tonight
I feel lucky
I feel so lucky
Think I'll flip a coin, I'm a winner either way
I feel lucky today
