As I walk down the street
Seems everyone I meet
Gives me a friendly hello
I guess I'm just a lucky so and so

The birds in every tree
Are all so neighborly
They sing wherever I go

In my bank account
I'd have to confess that I'm slippin'
But that don't worry me, confidentially
I've got a dream that's a pippin'

And when the day is through
Each night I hurry to
A home where love waits, I know
I guess I'm just a lucky so and so

And when the day is through
Each night I hurry to
A home where love waits, I know
I guess I'm just a lucky so and so
I'm just a lucky, lucky so and so
