With a Little Bit of Luck (From the B'way Musical, "My Fair Lady")

歌詞

The Lord above gave man an arm of iron So he could do his job and never shirk The Lord above gave man an arm of iron But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck Someone else will do the blinkin' work (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck you'll never work) The Lord above made liquor for temptation To see if man could turn away from sin The Lord above made liquor for temptation But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck When temptation comes you'll give right in (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck you'll give right in) Oh you can walk the straight and narrow But with a little bit of luck you'll run amok The gentle sex was made for man t'marry To share his nest and see his food is cooked The gentle sex was made for man t'marry But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck You can have it all and not get hooked (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck you won't get hooked) (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of bloomin' luck) The Lord above made man to help his neighbor No matter where on land or sea or foam The Lord above made man to help his neighbor But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck When he comes around you won't be home!! (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck you won't be home) They're always throwing goodness at you But, with a little bit of luck a man can duck Oh it's a crime for man to go philanderin' And fill his wife's poor heart with grief and doubt Oh it's a crime for man to go philanderin' But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck You can see the bloodhound don't find out (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck she won't find out) (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of bloomin' luck) Brief instrumental interlude A man was made to help support his children Which is the right and proper thing to do A man was made to help support his children But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck They'll go out and start supporting you (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck they'll work for you) (He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket) (The poorest bloke you'll ever hope to meet) (He doesn't have a tuppence in his pocket) (But, with a little bit of luck, with a little bit of luck) (He'll be movin' up to Easy Street) (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of luck I'm movin' up) (With a little bit, with a little bit) (With a little bit of bloomin' luck)
