Each night you go out on the town
You can't tell me just when you'll be home
You claim you're just dancing
But I know you're romancing
Yet patient, I wait all alone
You got sweethearts all over this town
And each thinks you're a good-hearted man
But your secret I share
Although you're not aware
And I'll keep it as long as I can
Ain't you lucky? Oh, ain't you lucky
Lucky that I love being lonely?
Ain't it swell? Oh, ain't it swell
Swell that I don't ever cry?
Ain't it sweet that I buy
All your cruel, cruel lies?
Ain't you lucky? Oh, ain't you lucky, babe
Lucky that I love being lonely?
Well, Honey, I'm holding my breath
As the flames from your lyin' grow higher
But I have in my hand
The end of a brand
And the iron grows hot in that fire
Ain't you lucky? Oh, ain't you lucky
Lucky that I love being lonely?
Ain't it swell? Oh, ain't it swell
Swell that I don't ever cry?
Ain't it sweet that I buy
All your cruel, cruel lies?
Ain't you lucky? Oh, ain't you lucky
Lucky that I love being lonely?
Lucky that I love being lonely
