Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was just a little kid I never had much shine Hand-me-down shoes on a crooked shelf And a dream that was all mine Mama said, “Boy, keep smiling That grin will get you through” She tapped my chin and laughed out loud “Good luck will stay with you” [Pre-Chorus] Now I don’t need a crown I don’t need much at all When trouble comes around I hear my heartbeat call [Chorus] Lucky mouth, lucky mouth Kiss me and the doubt falls out Lucky mouth, lucky mouth You turn a storm into a cloud Lucky mouth, lucky mouth Keep me standing when I’m down Lucky mouth, lucky mouth You make the whole world spin around (oh, oh, oh) [Verse 2] I’ve seen the cold back alley rain I’ve seen the broken plans But you lean in with that crooked smile And pull the ache from my hands No gold ring on my finger No limousine in sight Still I walk like I own the moon When you hold me tight [Pre-Chorus] Now I don’t need a crown I don’t need much at all When trouble comes around I hear my heartbeat call [Chorus] Lucky mouth, lucky mouth Kiss me and the doubt falls out Lucky mouth, lucky mouth You turn a storm into a cloud Lucky mouth, lucky mouth Keep me standing when I’m down Lucky mouth, lucky mouth You make the whole world spin around (oh, oh, oh) [Bridge] Let the cards lie where they land I got your hand in mine Every scar turns soft and small When your smile hits right on time [Final Chorus] Lucky mouth, lucky mouth Kiss me and the doubt falls out Lucky mouth, lucky mouth You turn a storm into a cloud Lucky mouth, lucky mouth Keep me standing when I’m down Lucky mouth, lucky mouth You make the whole world spin around (oh, oh, oh)
