Newport Ave. - Luckiest Man Lyrics

I woke up late 'cause my alarm clock died
Had to take a cold shower 'cause my boiler's fried
I made myself breakfast and my toaster caught fire
I was driving to work and I got a flat tire

But I
I'm the luckiest man alive

I just lost my job 'cause I was for freaking late
They told me get my things but it just had to wait
'Cause I slammed my hand in the taxicab door
Now it's so swollen it wont bend anymore

But I
I'm the luckiest man alive

Now I'm walking home and my hand is in pain
Bet your lucky stars it just started to rain
Don't have my umbrella cause it's still in my car
On the side of the road, didn't make it too far

But I
I'm the luckiest man alive

I smiled at a stranger and when I walked by
He grabbed me by the collar and threw me aside
I gave him my wallet and one of my shoes
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose

And I'm
The luckiest man alive
The luckiest man alive

So I've gotta be lucky
I've gotta be lucky
I've gotta be lucky, don't you see

That I've gotta be lucky
Just gotta be lucky
I've gotta be lucky as a man can be

I've gotta be lucky
Just gotta be lucky
I've gotta be lucky for a girl like you to be
With me
