LUCKY OL' ME
(Betty Jean Robinson)

Carl Belew & Betty Jean Robinson - 1972



 
CARL:
I woke up this mornin' happy as I could be
I just found out that wonderful you loves lucky ol' me
BETTY:
I opened up my window and welcomed the sunshine in
Told the little birds to sing my song, then sing it again

BOTH:
'Cause wonderful you's in love with lucky ol' me
And lucky ol' me's as lucky as lucky ol' me can be
CARL:
I was nothing until you came along
BETTY:
And you loved me with your love so sweet
BOTH:
Now look what wonderful you's done done to lucky ol' me

BETTY:
I smiled at the grouchy ol' mailman, I said hi to nosy Miss Jones
Even gave her mean little dog a pat on the head
CARL:
I called ev'ry name in the phonebook, oh what a party it's gonna be
Celebratin' the news that wonderful you loves lucky ol' me

BOTH:
'Cause wonderful you's in love with lucky ol' me
And lucky ol' me's as lucky as lucky ol' me can be
CARL:
I was nothing until you came along
BETTY:
And you loved me with your love so sweet
BOTH:
Now look what wonderful you's done done to lucky ol' me
Now look what wonderful you's done done to lucky ol' me
