LUCK BE A LADY (Some Enchanted Evening)
Music and lyrics by Frank Loesser
Featured in the 1955 film Guys and Dolls
They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very un-lady-like way
Of running out
You're on this date with me
The pickings have been lush
And yet before the evening is over
You might give me the brush
You might forget your manners
You might refuse to stay
And so the best that I can do is pray
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me
A lady leaves her escort
It isn't fair, it is not nice
A lady doesn't wander all over this room
And blow on some other guys dice
So let's keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Oh stick with me baby, I'm the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight
A lady doesn't leave her escort
It isn't fair, it is not nice
A lady doesn't wander all over this room
And blow on some other guys dice
So let's keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Oh stick with me baby, I'm the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady
Oh luck be a lady tonight
