Duke Ellington
I’m Just a Lucky So and So
[Verse 1]
As I walked down the street
Seems everyone I meet
Gives me a friendly hello
I guess I'm just a lucky so and so
Birds in every tree
Seem all so near to me
They sing wherever I go
Guess I'm just a lucky so and so
[Bridge]
If you should ask me the amount
In my bank account
I would have to confess that I'm slippin'
But that don't worry me
Confidentially, I've got a dream that I'm tippin'
[Verse 2]
And when the day is through
Each night I hurry to
A home where love waits, I know
I guess I'm just a lucky so and so
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
If you should ask me the amount
In my bank account
I would have to confess that I'm slippin'
But that don't worry me
Confidentially, I've got a dream that I'm tippin'
[Outro]
And when the day is through
Each night I hurry to
A home where love waits, I know
I guess I'm just a lucky so and so, oh
Just a lucky so and so
