I'm not saying that I'm something special
|
But you might know my name to some degree
|
Sometimes I can't believe that I'm still standing
|
And it feels pretty good to be me
|
|
I get to live out here in California
|
I got a palm tree and a swimming pool
|
Have some fun and try to play my music
|
Was all I really said I could do
|
|
And if anybody asks me - Joe how do you do it
|
'Cause you do it with such style and grace
|
I just shake my head and smile
|
Look 'em in the eyes and say
|
I'm just lucky that way... just lucky
|
|
Got a good woman and she makes me happy
|
Most of the time I make her happy too
|
We decided we should live together
|
So we both said 'I do'
|
|
And when someone says - Hey Joe, I saw you on TV
|
And how do you know what to play
|
I just shake my head and smile
|
Look 'em in the eyes and say
|
I'm just lucky that way
|
|
Started in the middle of nowhere
|
I didn't have far to fall
|
There were times I thought it was the end of the world
|
It didn't turn out so bad after all
|
|
Ya, I started in the middle of nowhere
|
I didn't have far to fall
|
And the times I thought it was the end of the world
|
Didn't turn out so bad after all
|
|
I'll let you all in on a little secret
|
If I could share with you a thing or two
|
If you just act like you know what you're doing
|
Everybody thinks that you do
|
|
And when anybody asks me - Joe, how do you do it
|
'Cause you do it with such style and grace
|
I just shake my head and smile,
|
Look 'em in the eyes and say -
|
I'm just lucky, I'm just lucky
|
I'm just lucky that way
|
I'm just lucky that way
|

Lucky That Way
