You're Lucky to Me
Louis Armstrong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you consider
The highest bidder
Can't buy the gleam in your eye
You're a lucky guy
Thank your lucky star
You've got a honey
She'll take you just as you are
Thank your lucky star
Hey fella
Say fella
Don't you realize
It's fated
You rated
Open up your eyes
You're a lucky guy
You're just beginning
So have your inning
And let your troubles go fry
No one can deny
You're a lucky guy
You're a lucky guy
When you consider
The highest bidder
Can't buy the gleam in your eyes
You're a lucky guy
Thank your lucky star
You've got a honey
Who wants no money
She'll take you just as you are
Thank your lucky star
Hey fella
Say fella
Look at Mister Dough
He's ailin'
He's failin'
Even he must know
You're a lucky guy
So why not treasure
Your highest pleasure
And live right up till you die?
No one can deny
Boy, you're a lucky guy
