Old man Calamity
don't bother me
ease right on your way;
what ever it takes
to get lucky breaks,
is what I'm needing today.
Coldness of the feet
is my complaint
I hereby call upon
my patron saint.

Oh, Lady Luck
I've got you on my mind
so won't you please
be kind to me?
Oh, Lady Luck
don't give my hopes the razz,
and I'll be happy as can be.
Just stick around
with me for a while,
show me your golden smile;
Oh, Lady Luck
you know it's time you should,
so won't you please
be good to me?

Oh, Lady Luck
I've got you on my mind
so won't you please
be kind to me?
Oh, Lady Luck
don't give my hopes the razz,
and I'll be happy as can be.
Just stick around
with me for a while,
show me your golden smile;
Oh, Lady Luck
you know it's time you should,
so won't you please
be good to me?

Life is a tricky game
you need the breaks,
good luck,
that's the test;
some people you meet
employ rabbits' feet
and some say
horse shoes are best.
as for me when things
are not so hot,
I've got a little prayer
that helps a lot.

Oh, Lady Luck
I've got you on my mind
so won't you please
be kind to me?
Oh, Lady Luck
don't give my hopes the razz,
and I'll be happy as can be.
Just stick around
with me for a while,
show me your golden smile;
Oh, Lady Luck
you know it's time you should,
so won't you please
be good to me?

Oh, Lady Luck
I've got you on my mind
so won't you please
be kind to me?
Oh, Lady Luck
don't give my hopes the razz,
and I'll be happy as can be.
Just stick around
with me for a while,
show me your golden smile;
Oh, Lady Luck
you know it's time you should,
so won't you please
be good to me?
