"Mr. Lucky" lyrics

"Mr. Lucky"

You did me wrong, you ran around
And that is why I had to put you down
You made a mess of our romance
But once again I'm giving your love a chance

Mr. Lucky
That's what your name should be
'Cause baby you're lucky to still have me
Mr. Lucky
You know what it's all about
Any other woman would've shut you out, ah, ah, ah

Your love hit me like a ton of bricks
And then you left me in a terrible fix
I told you once a-that this wasn't it
But here I am back in your trick again

Mr. Lucky
That's what your name should be
'Cause baby you're lucky to still have me
Mr. Lucky
You know what it's all about
Any other woman would've shut you out, ah, ah

You know to have a good woman is every man's dream
And baby you know that's no lie
You know it's true there's ever been no one but you
So baby oughta let out or die
Aw, I'm telling you for the last shot
If you think I'm weak get it outta your mind
I know you think you're a smooth operator
But baby I'll drop ya a-like a hot potato

Mr. Lucky
That's what your name should be
'Cause baby you're lucky to still have me
Mr. Lucky
You know what it's all about
Any other woman would've shut you out, ah, ah

Aw, you're so lucky
And you're my baby
And that's what your name should be
'Cause you're lucky
Ah, ah, ah
Oh, you're lucky
Ah, ah, ah
