I saw her smile and ever since I've been a beggar then a prince
That's the legend of old Lady Luck
A pot of gold a phantom trail a ship of dreams that never sail
That's the legend of old Lady Luck
Run out nowhere in the night I see her face so fair
But when I reach to hold her tight the lady isn't there
Today my castles look so tall tomorrow at my feet they fall
That's the legend of old Lady Luck
They say there's fortune love and fame if you but call the lady's name
That's the legend of old Lady Luck
I've heldf her hand up like a ghost she's not there when I need her most
The legend of old Lady Luck
I tried to catch the lady's glance I called her name aloud
But when I reach to hold her tight she'll vanish in the crowd
Another day another town I'll hear the rustle of her gown
That's the legend of old Lady Luck
