Born lucky I guess Didn't hurt that I was in the right place, the right time too And the girl she was dandelion beautiful Damn, she was beautiful When the wind blows her like a bird And the petals on the flower fly away Sometimes it don't matter what you say CHORUS All the good things fade away All the good things fade away I found me a game out towards Shreveport Couple of days just hiding from the sun Good with the cards and good with the dice You could say I had a lucky little run Won it all and maybe just a little bit more today All the luck you have is just the bills you left unpaid CHORUS Sure seems shitty to me there has to be such a thing as the good old days Someday, somewhere, my hair like my memories will all just fade out to gray Got it all right now and I just as soon keep it that way CHORUS (x2)
