Lucky Town

House got too crowded, clothes got too tight
And I dont know where I'm going tonight
Out where the sky's been cleared by a good hard rain
There's somebody calling my secret name

I'm going down to Lucky Town
Going down to Lucky Town
I wanna lose these blues I've found
Down in Lucky Town
Baby, down in Lucky Town

Had a coat of fine leather and snakeskin boots
But that coat always had a thread hanging loose
Well, I pulled it one night and to my surprise
It led me straight past your house on over the rise

I'm going down to Lucky Town
Going down to Lucky Town
I wanna lose these blues I've found
Down in Lucky Town
Baby, down in Lucky Town

Well, I had some victory that was just failure in deceit
Now the joke's coming up through the soles of my feet
I been a long time walking on fortune's cane
Well, tonight, I'm stepping lightly and I'm feeling no pain

Here's to your good looks, baby, and here's to my health
Here's to the loaded places that we take ourselves
When it comes to luck, you make your own
Tonight, I got dirt on my hands but I'm building me a home

Meet me down in Lucky Town
Down to Lucky Town
I'm gonna lose these blues I've found
Down in Lucky Town
Baby, down in Lucky Town
Down in Lucky Town
