Lucky You
Taylor Swift · Other Songs - Taylor Swift
With a little too much heart to go around
Live forever, never say never
You can do better, that's what she says
Mama named her Lucky on a starlit night
A rabbit foot in her pocket, she dances in spite of
The fact that she's different and yet she's the same
And she says do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Lucky you, lucky you
Do do do do do do do do do do
She sings her little song
She walks a long a little
Halfway headed for the skies
Left to travel, lives they unravel
Mind over matter, that's what she says
Mama named her Lucky on a starlit night
A rabbit foot in her pocket, she dances in spite of
The fact that she's different and yet she's the same
And she says do do do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Lucky you, lucky you, lucky you
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Maybe she'll sing you do do do do
Maybe she'll bring you into the skies
Honey, she'll love you
Funny how some view angels above you, ain't so far away.
Mama named her Lucky on a starlit night
A rabbit foot in her pocket, she dances in spite of
The fact that she's different and yet she's the same
And she says do do do do do do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Lucky you, lucky you
