Carlene Carter - The Lucky Ones Lyrics
We are the lucky ones, we know the truthOur daughters and sons just like us in our youthGenerations before us watch over from aboveThey filled us with faith and they showered us with loveMy girl's just like her mama, loves with all her heartAnd my son keeps me smilin' when life seems too hardWe're lucky that we have their love'Cause some can only dreamSo I never take for granted what I know means everythingWe are the lucky onesWe are the lucky onesWe are the lucky ones, we know the scoreThere's you and there's me and those fools at our doorThey want what we have, but they don't understandIt's a secret that keeps us still holdin' handsWe are the lucky onesWe are the lucky onesTime keeps on tickin' while we watch the clockWe learn from mistakes, yeah we've been around the blockThe way that this cruel world turns some upside downIt's amazing to me that we're still hangin' 'roundStrange as it seemsI live my life like some sweet dreamOne day I'm flying through the airNext I'm danglin' by a stringTell me, am I walkin' on coals or treadin' on thin iceTo have a little heaven here on earthWell, hell I'll pay the priceWe are the lucky onesWe are the lucky ones
