[Verse 1:]
I can't get no money for my pockets
I can't get into the swing of things
Someone keeps my picture in her locket
And she patches up the hole in my dreams

[Chorus:]
Lucky arms, I got the world in my arms
I ain't got no money but I got honey
Keep all your cash and spend it
I'll still be independent
'Cause I've got the world in my arms

[Verse 2:]
Hey, mister rainy skies, dry your eyes
So you can see my special girl
My arms are full of country, country sunshine
And we're hurrying to the top of the world

[Chorus]
