Harry Nilsson

Harry Edward Nilsson III (June 15, 1941 – January 15, 1994) was an American singer-songwriter who achieved the peak of his commercial success in the early 1970s. On all but his earliest recordings he is credited as Nilsson. He is known for the hit singles "Everybody's Talkin'" (1969), "Without You" (1971), and "Coconut" (1972). Nilsson's career is also notable for the fact that he was one of the few major pop-rock recording artists of his era to achieve significant commercial success without ever performing major public concerts or undertaking regular tours. more »

You could do the laundry
I'll come by on Monday
You give me the money
I will buy a ticket

On the local lottery
We could win the lottery
We could go to Vegas
And be very happy

("Ooh Loo's")
(Or) I could be a plumber
We could wait till summer
We could save our money

Have a fine vacation
We could buy a trailer
If we bought a trailer
We could go to Vegas

And be very happy
("Ooh Loo's")If life is just gamble,
Gamble if you want to win
(more "ooh loo's")--life can be so easy

Let the wheel of fortune spin)
(Or we could make a record
Sell a lot of copies
We could play Las Vegas

And be very happy)
("Ooh Loo's")--If life is just gamble,
Gamble if you want to win
(more "ooh loo's")--life can be so easy
Let the wheel of fortune spin)
