How Lucky (Live) [2013 The Colbert Report] Songtext
von John Prine

Today I walked down the street I use to wander
Yeah, shook my head, and I made myself a bet
There was all these things that I don′t think I remember
Hey, how lucky can one man get?

I bronzed my shoes, and I hung from a rearview mirror
Bronzed admiration in the blind spot of regret
Well, there was all these things that I don't think I remember
Hey, how lucky can one man get?


Today I walked down the street I use to wander
Yeah, scratched my head and lit my cigarette
Well, there was all these things that I don′t think I remember
Hey, how lucky can one man get?

Today I walked down the street I use to wander
Yeah, shook my head, and I made myself a bet
Well, there was all these things that I don't think I remember
Hey, how lucky can one man get?

Hey, how lucky can one man get?
Hey, how lucky can one man get?
