Ain’t she got fun,
She’s the luckiest one

Satin on my shoulder and a smile on my lips
How lucky can you get
Money in my pocket right at my fingertips
How lucky can you get
Every night a party where the fun never ends
You can circle the globe with my circle of friends
Someone I am crazy for is crazy for me
I’m his personal pet
Wow how lucky can you get
See her diamonds are gleam her life is a dream
Wrap it up and charge it that’s my is my favourite phrase
How lucky can you get
When I see the chauffeur think I’ll give him a raise
How lucky can you get
Weekends in the country with the baron of course
And a wardrobe to shock mrs Asters pet horse
Making merry music with the one that I love
We’re a perfect duet
Gee how lucky can you
Wee how lucky can you
Wow how lucky can you get

Ain’t she got fun
She’s the luck the luck the luck the luck the luck
The luck the luck the luck the luck the luck
The luck

Satin on my shoulder how lucky can you get
Money in my pocket how lucky can you get
Every night’s a party where the fun never ends
You can circle the globe with my circle of friends
Someone I am crazy for is crazy for me
I’m his personal pat
Wow how lucky can you get
He there gorgeous!
Big success!
What’s your secret gorgeous!
Just lucky I guess

You wanna know what it’s really like
FANTASTIC!
Satin on my shoulder and a smile on my lips
Money in my pocket right at my fingertips
Wrap it up and charge it that’s my favourite phrase
How lucky
When I see the chauffeur think I’ll give him a raise
How lucky
Life’s a bed of roses whirling perfume on me
You can spare me the blues I don’t sing in that key
And if there’s a man who’d leave me I am happy to say
I haven’t run into him yet

Gee Wee Wow
How lucky, how lucky can you get!
