Rod Stewart - Lady Luck lyrics

Propping up the bar with a glass of wine

Sunday night and I'm all spruced up and fine

But I ain't going nowhere

Lady Luck why don't you pull up a chair

And bring you shamrock wisdom darling over here

Your Gaelic humor and your pious smile

All the lads will be laughing tonight

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

Lady luck in the nick of time

Why are some folks lucky while the rest are trying

Your demon plan is still a mystery

Laced with a touch of inconsistency

So why don't you give us all a break

Make us all rich healthy and fine

Five month holidays a 4-hour week

And a horse that wins all the time

Lady Luck hear the mandolins

Kinda makes you wonder how it might have been

Now I'll go back to the fun place I've got

Or back on the streets again

Lady Luck yeah it's late I know

Allow me to buy you one more for the road

Tell me something I've been longing to hear

It's gonna get better next year

'Cause i've seen some rainy days

My patience is all ripped and torn

Now the sun comes shining through

I've cried in my beer too long

Lady Luck it sure is a funny old world

Sure is a funny old world
