Wishing I Was Lucky Lyrics

He would swear by his mouth almighty

I was living in a world of make believe
When my best friend wrote and told me
That there may be a job in the city
I was living in a world of make believe
When my best friend wrote and told me
That there may be a job in the city
(He wrote and told me)

He would dream about another scheme
′Bout another solid hall of dreams
'Bout a man who′s king of industry
He would swear by his mouth almighty
He would swear by his mouth almighty)
Find romance but never something new, yeah
And he never told me

I like kicking in the gutter and wishing I was lucky
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky
Ooh, I like kicking in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky

It's the only life I know

Lie, lie, lie
That's all you ever do
To make me wanna push on through
Cry, cry, cry
That′s all I ever do
To say you wanna make me push on through, yeah

I like kicking in the gutter and wishing I was lucky
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky
Ooh, I like kicking in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky

Ooh, I′m living in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky

It's the only life I know
My best friend wrote and told me so
He said that there may be a job in the city, yeah
Ooh, baby, yeah

I like kicking in the gutter and wishing I was lucky
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky
Ooh, I like kicking in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky

Ooh, I′m living in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky

It's only good, it′s only good to the city
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky, yeah
It's only good, it′s only good to the city
Ooh, in the city
It's only good, it's only good to the city
And I was wishing
It′s only good, it′s only good to the city
Ooh
