"Lucky Star" lyrics

"Lucky Star"

(Hey) Ooh, lucky star
(Hey) Ooh, lucky star
Ooh, lucky star you shine, shining

She was born in the back of a car
In Midwestern town
She learned early in life what it's like to go hungry for love
By the time she was sweet seventeen
She won a beauty queen contest (She was a beauty queen)
And with the money she won she took off to be a Hollywood star (Hollywood)
But somehow she got turned around by that man from Las Vegas
Who left her when the chips were down there on her own
So she learned to deal with her heart
And she learned how to steal from gamblers who call her lucky star (Lucky star, star, lucky star)

When she says
Give me the dice my handsome lover (Gimme, gimme)
Watch me get hot (Hot), one roll then another
I'm lucky tonight you're so sweet to cover all of my bets, cover my bets
Oh, I'll handle the chips, I love you, honey
I know how to bet, I'll win you some money
Later tonight we'll split up the cut (Later, baby)
Watch me get hot, I love you a lot
Oh, oh, ho, oh, lucky star (You're my lucky star)
That's what you are (That's what you are)
Lucky star (My lucky star, shining, shining)

Oh, she never forgets to send money home to her mom and dad
And she writes how she's in with the stars
And it makes them feel glad
Just to think she had dinner last week (How could she?) with friend Al Pacino (He's back in Hollywood)
And tomorrow she'll go for her screen test
She'll be a Hollywood star (Hollywood)
And she wonders, if she never had met that man from Last Vegas (That man)
Would she really have climbed to the top on a talent alone?
Will she ever be lucky in love?
Where's the man in ten-gallon hat who will rescue lucky star? (Lucky star, lucky star, lucky star)

When she says
Give me the dice my handsome lover (Gimme, gimme)
Watch me get hot (Hot), one roll then another
I'm lucky tonight you're so sweet to cover all of my bets, cover my bets
Oh, I'll handle the chips, I love you, honey
I know how to bet, I'll win you some money
Later tonight we'll split up the cut (Later, baby)
Watch me get hot, I love you a lot
Oh, oh, oh, lucky star (You're my lucky star)
That's what you are (That's what you are)
My lucky star (My lucky star, shining, shining)

Twelve, it goes again, baby
Oh, lucky star
That's what you are
Oh, lucky star
You're shining, shining, shining, shining, shine
Ooh, lucky star
Ooh, lucky star
You're shining, shining

Give me the dice my handsome lover (Gimme, gimme)
Watch me get hot (Hot), one roll then another
I'm lucky tonight you're so sweet to cover all of my bets, cover my bets
Oh, I'll handle the chips, I love you, honey
I know how to bet, I'll win you some money
Later tonight we'll split up the cut (Later, baby)
Watch me get hot, I love you a lot

Oh, oh, gimme the dice
(Wooh, yeah, gimme the dice
Wooh, yeah
Ooh, ho, baby
All of my bets, cover my bets)
Handle my chips, I love you, honey
I know how to bet, I'll win you some money
