For those of us who lived thru the 70s, the meaning is obvious. "Lucky" is used here ironically, as something that people would say at his funeral. The man lost everything to the follies of war. The bed he is laid on is in his coffin. The girls in satin are his wife and daughters who are left waiting at the door, because he will never be walking through it again. Love & money were not enough to save him. Sad song :( |
