Well, I cussed out on my boss and got fired
Then I hit the lottery and now I'm retired
The odds of that happenin' slim to none
But I wasn't surprised when I won
It happens everyday
I'm just lucky that way
I'm not braggin' don't take it like that
But good things just seem to fall in my lap
My good fortune, I cannot help
I'm just lucky inspite of myself
It happens everyday
I'm just lucky that way
Friends and relations knockin' down on my door
Not to mention folks I've never seen before
Got my phone number changed, had it taken out of the book
Still my phone keeps ringin' off the hook
My luck's so good
Tell it's a crying shame
I have to move up the country
I have to change my name
It happens everyday, I win when I play
I'm just lucky that way, yeah
You know I win when I play
I'm just lucky that way
