Let's Work Lyrics

LUCKY IN LOVE 

Mick Jagger

A betting fool

A gambling man 

No sooner up 

You're down again 

Mama said you won't get hurt

Don't play the cards

You won't get burned 

But there's a place where I still win

But there's no money in this thing

The game of hearts puts me in spades

The only game I've got it made

Oh I'm lucky in love

Yes I've got the winning touch 

Lucky in love 

Suddenly I'm dangerous

I'm betting on a filly down at the track 

A natural born winner that's a fact

A hundred yards from the winning post 

The horse fell down must have seen a ghost

But there's a place where I still win

That is still my sure fire thing

Ooh I will play the Jack of Spades

You play the Queen 

I'll play the knave

Oh I'm lucky in love

Yes I've got the winning touch 

Lucky in love 

Suddenly I'm dangerous

I know it's a mystery 

When the numbers come up 

Cause mathematics is Greek to me

But I'm lucky, I'm lucky 

I'm lucky in love

Yeah Las Vegas at night at the roulette wheel

Yeah Monte Carlo try to cut a deal 

Atlantic City I lose at craps 

Back in London try to win it back 

And late at night I lay in bed

With a pistol to my head

Swear I couldn't take no more

And in she walks right through my door

Oh I'm lucky in love 

When I think I've had enough 

Lucky in love 

Yes I've got the winning touch 

Suddenly I'm dangerous

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky

Lucky with the ladies

Thank God for the ladies 

Otherwise I'd go, I'd go crazy 

How about a line of credit 

For say ten thousand dollars

Eighteen on the red

Put me, put me home to bed baby

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky

Yes I'm lucky, yes I'm lucky

Lucky with the ladies

I'm sitting here with a full house you know

I just can't just can't lose out on this

Okay, okay your ten thousand 

and ten thousand more

Oh you want to raise me

You want to raise me

How about this 

Twenty thousand and twenty thousand more

Okay you want to see me

Well I got, I got a full house

What's that 

A royal flush 

Well ain't that a bust

I'm broke
