Lucky Seven Sampson |
Now, you can call me lucky, 'cause Lucky’s my name |
Singin' and dancin', that’s my game |
I never did a whole day’s work in my life |
Still, everything seemed to turn out right |
Like a grasshopper on a summer’s day |
I just love to play and pass the time away |
'Cause I was born 'neath a lucky star |
They said I’d go far |
Makin' people happy, that’s my favorite game |
Lucky Seven is my natural name |
Slippin' and slidin' my whole life through |
Still I get everything done that I got to do |
'Cause I was born 'neath a lucky star |
School is where you are? |
Aw, that’s not hard |
Let me show you something |
You multiply seven times one |
I got seven days to get that problem done |
Multiply seven times two |
Take 14 laughs when you’re feelin' blue |
Multiply seven times three |
A 21-day vacation, you can play with me |
Multiply seven times four |
You got 28 days, that’s-a one month more |
To pay the mortgage on your store, don’t worry |
Somethin' will turn up! |
Yeah |
Multiply seven times five |
I don’t know how you did it, but man alive, that’s 35 |
Multiply seven times six |
Grab a stick and make 42 clickity-clicks |
Multiply seven times seven |
Take 49 steps right up to seventh heaven |
Multiply seven times eight |
They got 56 flavors and I just can’t wait |
Multiply seven times nine |
63 musicians, all friends of mine |
Multiply seven times ten |
And that brings you right back to 70 again |
You know, I think that’s important! |
There’s a trick there somewhere |
Multiply seven times 11 |
Even a rabbit knows that’s seventy plus seven |
Multiply seven times 12 |
You got 84, and isn’t that swell? |
I’m gonna try seven times 13 just for fun |
Seventy plus 21 |
Seven times 14 must be great |
Well exactly, that’s-a seventy plus 28 |
Seven times 15, man alive |
That’s seventy plus 35, 105! |
Man, this stuff is simple, no jive! |
You got it, and I gotta fly |
Excuse me folks, I’m sayin' goodbye |
I sure do thank you for the huckleberry pie |
Take it home, boys! |
Remember, Lucky Seven Sampson, that’s my natural-born name |
If you should ask me again, I’d have to tell you the same |
You wake up tomorrow, you’ll be glad that I came |
'Cause you’ll be singin' one of the songs that I sang |
So keep a happy outlook and be good to your friend |
And maybe I’ll pass this way again |
Maybe! |
Bye! |
