If I Get Lucky

[Instrumental Intro]



[Verse 1]

If I get lucky and just make my train for home

If I ever get lucky and make my train for home

I believe I will leave this town

And I ain't comin' back no more



[Verse 2]

My mother told me: "J.B. you'd better watch your step"

My mother sat down and told me: "J.B. you'd better watch your step"

One day you may fall down and you gon' need somebody's help



[Verse 3]

Sometimes I wonder what in the world gon' become of me

Sometimes I's just sit and wonder what in the world gon' become of me

Will I be livin' here on Earth, or will I be livin' misery



[Instrumental Break]



[Outro]

If I get lucky
