Lyrics of 'Lucky Girl' by Patti Scialfa

I never wanted nothing
Baby you know it's true
I never wanted nothing
The way I wanted you
I kept me hands clean
I walked a good line
I knew someday baby
Someday you'd be mine
And when fortune
Came to town
I was standing
In with the unsatisfied
So I lay my wishes down
For the things
That money can't buy

Oh, I guess I'm a lucky girl
Oh, baby you know it's true
Oh, I guess I'm a lucky girl
I've been lucky
Since I found you

I used to play it safe
Yea that's what I'd do
I never wanted nothing
Nothing I could lose
I was just frightened of
Of the price you pay
For every good thing
That ever comes your way
I'm going to lay
My worries down
Lay them down baby
Yeah I can't complain
'Cause I'm shining
(Shining) down
Like a new link
In an old chain

Oh I guess
I'm a lucky girl
I've been lucky
Since I found you
I'm a lucky girl
I'm a lucky girl
I'm a lucky girl
I'm a lucky girl

Yeah, I got lucky baby
Yeah 'cause I got wise
You can run
But you can never hide
Build a house of steel
Raise a cross of stone
When that cold wind blows
It finds you all alone
And when fortune came to town
I was standing
In with the unsatisfied
So I lay my wishes down
For the things
That money can't buy

Oh, I guess I'm a lucky girl
Oh, baby you know it's true
Oh, I guess I'm a lucky girl
I've been lucky
Since I found you
Oh, I guess I'm a lucky girl
Mmmm, baby you know it's true
Oh, I guess I'm a lucky girl
I've been lucky
Since I found you
I've been lucky since
I've been lucky since
I've been lucky
Since I found you
I've been lucky since
I've been lucky since
I've been lucky
Since I found you
Oh, guess I'm a lucky girl
Oh, such a lucky girl
Oh, yes I'm a lucky girl
Oh, such a lucky girl
