Song Lyrics

They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very un-ladylike way of running out
You're on this date with me
The pickings have been lush
And yet before this 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
Just how nice you can be
I know the way you treated
Other guys you been with
Luck be a lady with me

A lady doesn't leave her escort
It isn't fair
And it's not nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guy's dice

Let's keep this party alight
Never get out of my sight

Stick with me baby, I'm the fella you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

Luck let a gentleman see
Just how nice
Just how nice a dame you can be

I seen the way you treated
Other guys you been with
Luck be a lady with me

A lady doesn't leave her escort
It isn't fair
And it's not nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guy's dice

Let's get this party started right
Never get out of my sight

Stick with me baby I'm the fella you came in with

Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Oh, tonight
Oh, tonight
Ah, tonight
Ah!
