Let Me Be Lucky Now

sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
life can be funny that way
but somehow tonight life feels just right
so change me some chips, let me play

now go ahead and roll the dice
and give the wheel a spin
shuffle and give those cards a slice
tonight I'm gonna win

oh let me be lucky now
just let me be lucky now
ooh let me be lucky now
let me be lucky in love and the love be you

I'm gonna counter all the odds
the limit is the skies
so get those dollars wrapped in wads
for when I win first prize

oh let me be lucky now
just let me be lucky now
ooh let me be lucky now
let me be lucky in love and the love be you

I'm gonna roll five sixes and get to your heart
I'm gonna hit that bull's-eye with only one dart
no holding back now, baby, I'm playing high stakes
I'm on a winning streak now, I tell you
so deal me the deck cos I'm gonna be lucky

I'm gonna hold the aces in every suit
I'm gonna be the victor who's raking the loot
the man in Monte Carlo who's breaking the bank
this better can't get better, I tell you
hold on to your horses, I'm gonna be lucky

this gambler's on that lucky break
I'm gonna fill that line
and any risk I undertake
is gonna work out fine

oh let me be lucky now
just let me be lucky now
ooh let me be lucky now
let me be lucky in love and the love be you
