Lyrics
They call you Lady Luck But there is room for doubt At times you have a very Unladylike way of running out You're this a date with me The pickings have been lush And yet before this evening is over You might give me the brush You might forget your manners You might refuse to stay And so the best that I can to is pray Luck be a lady tonight Luck be a lady tonight Luck if you've ever been A lady to begin with Luck be a lady tonight Luck let a gentleman see How nice a dame you can be I've seen the way you've treated Other guys you've been with Luck be a lady with me A lady doesn't leave her escort It isn't fair, it isn't nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guy's dice So let's keep the party polite Never get out of my sight Stick with me baby I'm the fellow you came in with Luck be a lady Luck be a lady Luck be a lady tonight Luck be a lady tonight Luck be a lady tonight Luck, if you've ever been A lady to begin with Luck be a lady tonight Luck let a gentleman see How nice a dame you can be I know the way you've treated Other guys you've been with Luck be a lady, a lady, be a lady with me Luck be a lady with me A lady wouldn't flirt with strangers She'd have a heart, she'd have a soul A lady wouldn't make little snake eyes at me When I've got my life on this roll Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, snake eyes Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em! So let's keep the party polite Never get out of my sight Never get out of my sight Stick here, baby, stick here, baby Stick with me, baby I'm the fellow you came in with Luck be a lady Luck be a lady Luck be a lady tonight Coming out, coming out, coming out
