Lyrics
[Intro]
Gimme the dice and give me room
You've seen me roll for a hundred Gs
But I got a little more than dough riding on this one
[Intro]
They call you Lady Luck, but there is room for doubt
At times, you have a very unladylike way of running out
You're on this date with me, the picking's have been lush
And yet, before this evening is over, you might give me the brush
You might forget your manners, you might refuse to stay
And so the best that I can do
Is pray
[Verse 1]
Luck, be a lady tonight
Luck, be a lady tonight
Luck, if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck, be a lady tonight
[Verse 2]
Luck, let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck, be a lady with me
[Bridge]
A lady doesn't leave her escort
It isn't fair, it isn't nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guy's dice
[Verse 3]
So let's keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me, baby, I'm the fella you came in with
Luck, be a lady
Luck, be a lady
Luck, be a lady tonight
[Verse 4]
Luck, be a lady tonight
Luck, be a lady tonight
Luck, if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck, be a lady tonight
[Verse 5]
Luck, let a gentleman see (Luck, let a gentleman see)
How nice a dame you can be (How nice a dame you can be)
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with (Luck, be a lady, a lady)
Luck, be a lady with me
[Bridge]
A lady wouldn't flirt with strangers
She'd have a heart, she'd have a soul
A lady wouldn't make little snake eyes at me (Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, snake eyes)
When I've bet my life on this roll (Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em)
[Outro]
So let's keep the party polite (So let's keep the party polite)
Never get out of my sight (Never get out of my sight)
Stick with me baby, I'm the fella you came in with (Stick here, baby, stick here, baby)
Luck, be a lady (Luck, be a lady)
Luck, be a lady (Luck, be a lady)
Luck, be a lady (Roll, will ya? Roll, will ya? What's the matter? Roll the dice!)
Tonight (Comin' out, comin' out, comin' out, comin' out right)
Ha!
