As I walk down the street,
Seems everyone I meet
Gives me a friendly "Hello!";
I guess I'm just a lucky so 'n' so!


The birds in every tree
Are all so neighbourly,
They sing wherever I go;
I guess I'm just a lucky so 'n' so!


If you should ask me the amount
In my bank account,
I'd have to confess that I'm slippin',
But that don't worry me,
Confidentially
I've got a dream that's a pippin!


And when the day is through,
Each night I hurry to
A home where love waits, I know,
Guess I'm just a lucky, just a lucky so 'n' so!
