Dry your eyes pretty girl
|
I just got news from the outside world
|
I dont know how they got our names
|
But yesterday this letter came:
|
|
Mr. and Mrs. Resident Dweller, your lucky number is
|
You may already be a winner
|
|
I've suspected this for years
|
Still in all its good to hear
|
They're pulling for us in the post
|
To you my dear, I raise this toast
|
|
A house of our dreams, an El Dorado, a ten-speed blender
|
You may already be a winner
|
|
Now Ive never counted my chickens before they're hatched
|
And I know there is always a catch
|
But I've felt from the start that our hearts were the perfect match
|
|
I know you're tired of the same old dress
|
I know the car's been repossessed
|
I know this house is just a shack
|
But there's this love we cant hold back
|
|
Would you like a beer with your TV dinner?
|
Oh, my darling, you may already be a winner
|
|

You May Already Be A Winner
