BE MY LUCK

when I was drunk and handsome
the world revolved around me
I don't know how she found me
but the bar stood still
drink in here on payday
the place would drive you crazy
come over here and save me
won't you say you will?

here am I a free man
with nothing in the coffers
open to offers
and I'm in my prime
I'm too young to marry
too old to mess about
let me be your carry-out
at closing time

be my luck and take the poor boy out of here
be my luck forever and a day
give me just one kiss and you can carry me away

two moons are shining
happiness is double
hits you like the stubble
on a whisky kiss
god bless the bouncers
and happy hour romances
got to take your chances
in a life like this

be my luck and take the poor boy out of here
be my luck forever and a day
give me just one kiss and you can carry me away
