 (repeat)
 I  am better with my muscles
 Than I am with my mouth
 I work the fair grounds  in the summer
 Or go pick fruit down south
 And when  I feel them chilly winds
 Where the weather goes I'll follow
 Pack  up my travelling  things
 Go with the swallows
 And I might get Lucky  now and then
 You win  some
 I might get lucky  now and then
 You win  some
 
 
 
 I wake  up every morning
 Keep an eye on what I spend
Got  to think about eating
 Got to think about paying the rent
 I always think it's funny
 It gets me every time
 That one  about happiness and money?
 Tell it to the breadline
 But you might get Lucky  now and then
 You win  some
 You might get Lucky  now and then
 Yeah you win  some
 :
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Now I'm a rambling  through this meadow
 Happy  as a man can be
 Think  I'll just lay  me down
 Under this old tree
On  and on we go
 Through this old world a shuffling
 If  you've got a truffle dog
 You can go truffling
 And you might get Lucky  now and then
 You win  some
 You might get Lucky  now and then
 Yeah you win  some
 (end on )

I[G] am better with my muscles

Than I am with my mouth
I work the fair gr[G7]ounds in the sum[C/G]mer
Or go pick fruit down south       [G]
And wh[G]en I feel them chilly winds

Where the weather goes I'll follow
P[G7]ack up my tr[C]avelling things
Go with the sw[G]allows

And I might get L[D/F#]ucky now and then  [D/F#]        [D7]           [F#]
You w[G]in some  [G/C]
I might get l[Am]ucky now and then  [Am7]       [C]
You w[G]in some  [C/G]       [C/G]

  [G]   [C/G]   [C/G]   [C/G]
  [G]   [C/G]   [C/G]   [C/G]
  [G]   [C/G]   [C/G]   [C/G]

I w[G]ake up every morning

Keep an eye on what I spend
[G7]Got to think about ea[C/G]ting
Got to think about paying the r[G]ent

I always think it's funny

It gets me every time
That o[G7]ne about happiness and m[C/G]oney?
Tell it to the breadl[G]ine

But you might get L[D/F#]ucky now and then  [D/F#]        [D7]           [F#]
You w[G]in some  [C]
You might get L[Am]ucky now and then  [Am7]       [C]
Yeah you w[G]in some  [C/G]       [G]          [G]

Now I'm a r[Bm]ambling through this meadow
H[Em]appy as a man can be  [Em7]
T[C]hink I'll just la[G]y me down   [D/F#]
Under this old tree  [D7/F#]
[G]On and on we go

Through this old world a shuffling
I[G7]f you've got a truffle d[C]og
You can go truffli[G]ng

And you might get L[D/F#]ucky now and then  [D/F#]        [D7]           [F#]
You w[G]in some  [C]
You might get L[Am]ucky now and then  [Am7]       [C]
Yeah you w[G]in some  [C/G]       [C/G]
