| They call you lady luck
|
| But there is room for doubt
|
| At times you have a very un-lady-like way
|
| Of running out
|
| You’re on this date with me
|
| The picking’s have been lush
|
| And yet before this evening is over
|
| You might give me the brush
|
| You might forget your manners
|
| You might refuse to stay
|
| And so the best that I can do is pray
|
| Luck be a lady tonight
|
| Luck be a lady tonight
|
| Luck if you’ve been a lady to begin with
|
| Luck be a lady tonight
|
| Luck let a gentleman see
|
| Just how nice a dame you can be
|
| I know the way you’ve treated other guys you’ve been with
|
| Luck be a lady with me
|
| A lady doesn’t leave her escort
|
| It isn’t fair, and it’s not nice
|
| A lady doesn’t wander all over the room
|
| And blow on some other guy’s dice
|
| Let’s keep this party polite
|
| Never get out of my sight
|
| Stick with me baby, I’m the guy that you came in with
|
| Luck be a lady tonight
|
| A lady never flirts with strangers
|
| She’d have a heart, she’d be nice
|
| A lady doesn’t wander all over the room
|
| And blow on some other guy’s dice
|
| Let’s keep this party polite
|
| Never get out of my sight
|
| Stick with me baby, I’m the guy that you came in with
|
| Luck be lady tonight |
