My Fair Lady
With a Little Bit of Luck
The Lord above gave man an arm of iron
So he could do his job and never shirk
The Lord above gave man an arm of iron, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
Someone else'll do the blinkin' work!
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck you'll never work!
The Lord above made liquor for temptation
To see if man could turn away from sin
The Lord above made liquor for temptation, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
When temptation comes you'll give right in!
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck you'll give right in
Oh, you can walk the straight and narrow
But with a little bit of luck you'll run amuck!
The gentle sex was made for man to marry
To share his nest and see his food is cooked
The gentle sex was made for man to marry, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
You can have it all and not get hooked
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck you won't get hooked
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of bloomin' luck!
The Lord above made man to help is neighbor
No matter where, on land, or sea, or foam
The Lord above made man to help his neighbor, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
When he comes around you won't be home!
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck, you won't be home
They're always throwing goodness at you
But with a little bit of luck a man can duck
Oh, it's a crime for man to go philanderin'
And fill his wife's poor heart with grief and doubt
Oh, it's a crime for man to go philanderin', but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
You can see the bloodhound don't find out!
With a little bit, with a little bit
With a little bit of luck she won't find out
With a little bit, with a little bit
With a little bit of bloomin' luck!
A man was made to help support his children
Which is the right and proper thing to do
A man was made to help support his children, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
They'll go out and start supporting you!
With a little bit, with a little bit
With a little bit of luck they'll work for you!
He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket
The poorest bloke you'll ever hope to meet
He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
He'll be moving up to easy street
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck he's moving up
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of bloomin' luck!
So he could do his job and never shirk
The Lord above gave man an arm of iron, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
Someone else'll do the blinkin' work!
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck you'll never work!
The Lord above made liquor for temptation
To see if man could turn away from sin
The Lord above made liquor for temptation, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
When temptation comes you'll give right in!
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck you'll give right in
Oh, you can walk the straight and narrow
But with a little bit of luck you'll run amuck!
The gentle sex was made for man to marry
To share his nest and see his food is cooked
The gentle sex was made for man to marry, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
You can have it all and not get hooked
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck you won't get hooked
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of bloomin' luck!
The Lord above made man to help is neighbor
No matter where, on land, or sea, or foam
The Lord above made man to help his neighbor, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck

With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck, you won't be home

And fill his wife's poor heart with grief and doubt
Oh, it's a crime for man to go philanderin', but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck

With a little bit, with a little bit

A man was made to help support his children, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck

With a little bit, with a little bit
With a little bit of luck they'll work for you!

The poorest bloke you'll ever hope to meet
He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket, but
With a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck
He'll be moving up to easy street
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of luck he's moving up
With a little bit... with a little bit
With a little bit of bloomin' luck!
