Lyrics

[Verse 1] Ten years I've known you now Still friends, I don't know how Each time we talk we row We're chalk and cheese [Verse 2] You are one son-of-a-gun The wreck of last night's fun You're more commotion than A dog with seven fleas [Pre-Chorus] All night lights you burn Lit up from stem to stern You're sailing for heavy weather I hope we both pull through together [Chorus] And if you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky now And if you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky now [Verse 3] You never hit the brakes You never make mistakes Disaster's in your wake Doing what you please [Verse 4] But still for all the scuzz A brother is as a brother does I love you just because We've ploughed the seven seas [Pre-Chorus] All night lights you burn Lit up from stem to stern We're sailing for heavy weather I hope we both pull through together [Chorus] And if you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky now And if you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky now [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] All night lights you burn You're sailing for heavy weather I hope we both pull through together [Chorus] And if you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky now And if you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky If you can't be good, be lucky now [Outro] If you can't be lucky, lean on me If you can't be good, be lucky now
