Luck Be a Lady (Live 1963)

They call you Lady Luck But there is room for doubt At times, you've had a very unlady-like way of running out You're on this date with me The Pickens have been lush And yet before this evening is over You might give me the brush

You might forget your manners You might refuse to stay And so the best that I can do is pray

Luck be a lady tonight Luck be a lady tonight Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with, luck be a lady tonight

Luck let a gentleman see How nice a dame you can be I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with Luck, be a lady with me

A lady doesn't leave her escort It isn't fair, it isn't nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guy's dice Let's keep this party polite Never get out of my sight Stick me with me baby, I'm the fella you came in with Luck, be a lady tonight

Luck, let a gentleman see Just how nice, how nice a dame you can be I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with Luck be a lady with me

A lady doesn't leave her escort It isn't fair, and it's not nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guy's dice So let's keep the party polite Never get out of my sight Stick with me baby, I'm the guy that you came in with Luck be a lady Luck be a lady Luck be a lady, tonight
