House got
too crowded,
clothes got too tight
And I don't know where
I'm going tonight
Out where the sky's been cleared
by good hard rain
There's somebody callin'
my secret name
I'm goin' down to Lucky Town
Goin' down to Lucky Town
I wanna lose these blues I found
Down in Lucky Town
Baby, down in Luckytown
Had a coat of fine leather
and snakeskin boots
But that coat always had
a thread hangin' loose
Well, I pulled it out one night
and to my surprise
It led me straight past her house
on over the rise
I'm going down to Luckytown,
going down to Luckytown
I want to lose these blues I've found,
down in Luckytown
Baby, down in Luckytown
Well I had some victory,
it was just failure and deceit
Now the joke's coming up
through the soles of my feet
I've been a long time
walking on fortune's cane
But tonight I'm stepping lightly
and I'm feeling no pain
So here's to your good looks, baby,
and here's to your health.
It's the loaded places
that we take ourselves
But when it comes to luck,
you make your own
Tonight I got dirt on my hands,
but I'm building me a home
Baby, down in Lucky Town,
down in Lucky Town
I'm gonna lose these
blues I found
Down in Luckytown, baby
Down in Luckytown
Down in Luckytown
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
