Lucky Lyrics

When I saw you the other day
And then I saw you later
Well, I just couldn't help but say
Ooh, what I want to say to you
But I'm so very, very lucky
Uh-huh
But I'm so very lucky, baby

Some people want lots of people
Some people don't want none
Me, I don't want lots of people
Me, I don't want none
'Cause I'm so very, very lucky
That's why I'm lucky now
'Cause I'm so very lucky, baby
'Cause when I'm with you I don't have to dream
'Cause when I'm with you I don't have to tell no lies
'Cause when I'm with you I don't have to wish
Oh, baby, baby, it's like the sun is setting in your eyes
Oh, baby, baby, I can see the sun is setting in your eyes

I know the reason why I'm lucky
I know the reason why I'm lucky
I know the reason why I'm lucky
I know the reason why I'm lucky

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
