Lyrics A Lucky Guy - Rickie Lee Jones

A Lucky Guy

Oh, he’s a lucky guy, oh, he’s a lucky guy
He doesn’t worry about me when I’m gone
He goes to sleep at night, he don’t turn off the light
Wonder how to find me, if I’m alone
Oh, he’s a lucky guy, I wish I was like him
'Cause when he talks about me
He don’t look this way
He’s a lucky guy
He used to walk with me, he used to talk to me
See, we have these secrets, no one else could hear
Well, he’s not the only one, no, no not the only one
But what happens to them?
Do they matter?
Do they disappear into a lonely girl?
I’m a lonely girl
I want somebody with me in the world
Oh, he’s a lucky guy
Fortune walks right in the door
And here I am just like before
Well, I’m not gonna turn around
I’m not his pretty clown
I’m not the one caught
Like he thought he was the last one I had there
'Cause I did a foolish thing, a real, real stupid thing
I told him I love him and I want him there when I knew he wouldn’t come
And I knew he didn’t care and I’ll cry awhile, I’ll cry awhile
But when I wake up and tomorrow is a new day
I’m a lucky guy
Hey, I’m a lucky guy
Real, real lucky guy, guy, hey
I’m a lucky guy
Ooh, oh I’m a lucky guy
