[Verse 1]
He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door

[Chorus]
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was

[Verse 2]
White lace, and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid

[Chorus]
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was

[Bridge]
A-ah
A-ah
A-ah
A-ah
A-a-ah
A-a-a-ah
[Verse 3]
He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honour and his glory
The people would sing

[Chorus]
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was

[Verse 4]
A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died

[Chorus]
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was

[Outro]
A-a-ah
A-a-ah
A-a-ah
A-a-ah
A-a-ah
