Tom Waits - Lucky Day Lyrics
The prettiest girlIn all the worldIs in a little spanish townBut I left her for a bonnie lassAnd I told herId see her aroundBut that bonnie lassAnd her heart of glassWould not hold a candleTo bumming aroundSo dont cry for meFor Im going awayAnd Ill be back some lucky dayTell the boys back homeIm doing just fineI left my troubles and woeSo sing about meFor I cant come homeIve many more miles to goWhy, theres miss kelseyYou taught dance at our schoolAnd old johnny otooleIll still beat you at poolSo dont cry for meFor Im going awayAnd Ill be back some lucky dayNow when I was a boyMy daddy sat me on his kneeAnd he told meHe told me many thingsAnd he said soneTheres a lot of things in this worldYoure gonna have no use forAnd when you get blueAnd youve lost all your dreamsTheres nothin like a campfireAnd a can of beansWhy, theres miss kelseyShe taught dance at our schoolAnd old johnny otooleIll still beat you at poolSo dont cry for meFor Im going awayAnd Ill be back some lucky day
