I'm  not saying that I'm something special
but  you might know my name to some degree
Sometimes  I can't believe that I'm still standing
and  it feels pretty good to be me
I  get to live out here in California
I  got a palm tree and a swimming pool
Have  some fun and try to play my music
Was  all I really said I could do
And  if anybody asks me Joe how do  you do it
Cause  you do it with such style and  grace
I  just shake my head and smile
Look  'em in the eyes and say
 I'm just lucky that  way, just  lucky
Got  a good woman and she makes me happy
Most  of the time I make her happy too
We  decided we should live together
So  we both said 'I do'
And  when someone says Hey Joe, I saw you  on TV
And  how do you know what to play
I  just shake my head and smile
Look  'em in the eyes and say
 I'm just  lucky that way
Started  in the middle of nowhere
I  didn't have far to fall
There  were times I thought it was the end  of the world
It  didn't turn out so bad after  all
Ya,  I started in the middle of nowhere
I  didn't have far to fall
And  the times I thought it was the end  of the world
Didn't  turn out so bad after  all
I'll  let you all in on a little secret
If  I could share with you a thing or  two
If  you just act like you know what you're doing
Everybody  thinks that you  do
And  when anybody asks me Joe, how do  you do it
Cause  you do it with such style and  grace
I  just shake my head and smile, look  'em in the eyes and say
I'm  just lucky, I'm  just lucky
I'm  just lucky that  way
I'm  just lucky that  way
