Lyrics Lottery Ticket - Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness

Lottery Ticket

Can’t write another song about being young
Not me, not now, I’m not that clever
31 and my voice was shot
Grew a beard, spent a year at the coffee shop
You called to say «it's now or never»
Don’t fall back now
Don’t fall back now
We are the fortunate ones
(Pick me up in the parking lot
I’ve got a good buzz and a lottery ticket)
We are the fortunate ones
(And we don’t care if we win or not
Got a good buzz and a lottery ticket)
Guess I’ll wait for the lightning strike
Guess I’ll pray for rain to make this right
You’ve got these eyes that keep me hoping
In the shadows when I doubt myself, I’ve started to see with the lights out
You called to say «the sky is open»
Don’t fall back now, don’t fall back now
We are the fortunate ones
(Pick me up in the parking lot
I’ve got a good buzz and a lottery ticket)
We are the fortunate ones
(And we don’t care if we win or not
Got a good buzz and a lottery ticket)
Made it home, barely alive
I was way too fucked up to drive, to drive
We are the fortunate ones
Pick me up in the parking lot, I’ve got a good buzz and a lottery ticket
We are the fortunate ones
And we don’t care if we win or not, got a good buzz and a lottery ticket
Got a good buzz, and a lottery ticket
