Lucky Seven

Lyrics

[Intro] Seven on the corner, tell me what you see One good number gonna set us free [Verse 1] You walked in laughing with a paper in your hand Red shoes tapping like you own the whole band I had two coins and a half-made plan You said, “Pick a number, let the good luck land” [Pre-Chorus] We drew a little circle, kissed the ticket twice You said, “If it hits, we’re buying something nice” I said, “If it don’t, I’m still alright” Then the whole room leaned in when they called tonight [Chorus] Lucky seven, take me to the sweet side Lucky seven, let the good roll high You and me, baby, got a winning kind of feeling Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven Lucky seven, turn the whole thing around Lucky seven, put our feet off the ground Win or lose, you’re the prize I’m keeping Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven [Verse 2] The clerk read numbers, we were holding our breath You squeezed my fingers like you’d bet on us next The last one landed and you laughed out loud We didn’t win big, but we won that crowd [Pre-Chorus] We took our little ticket down the avenue Bought a slice to share and a pair of shoes You said, “Some folks wait for a lucky break” I said, “I got mine the day we met” [Chorus] Lucky seven, take me to the sweet side Lucky seven, let the good roll high You and me, baby, got a winning kind of feeling Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven Lucky seven, turn the whole thing around Lucky seven, put our feet off the ground Win or lose, you’re the prize I’m keeping Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven [Bridge] Seven little turns in a long, long road Seven small chances in the hand we hold No golden mansion, no diamond ring Just your laugh beside me—that’s the real win [Final Chorus] Lucky seven, take me to the sweet side Lucky seven, let the good roll high You and me, baby, got a winning kind of feeling Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven Lucky seven, turn the whole thing around Lucky seven, put our feet off the ground Win or lose, you’re the prize I’m keeping Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven [Outro] Lucky seven, you and me Lottery heaven, lucky as can be Lucky seven’s, lottery heaven
