"One Lucky Guy"

Copyright 1995, Tano Music

Words by Tom Sperrazzo, Music by Duke Ellington

'nother year older, you don't show it;

Sun on his shoulder, we know it;

That Chuck, he's ONE LUCKY GUY.

 

Full of life's fuego and swingin';

No Winnebago, still singing.

Quite plucky...ONE LUCKY GUY.

 

Everyone says to him, "Chuck, you're a fortunate soul!

Wonderful wife and a life that just keeps spinnin' gold!"

Yes, sirooney!

 

Castle on Flametree, cat's pajamas!

Dazzlin' family, all bananas!

It's Chuck, he's ONE LUCKY GUY.

 

He relishes telling amigos his clan's heaven-sent

Now, how many blokes can tell jokes and make puns to the nth?

You degree me!

 

Catholic-Sicilian, worth a million;

Toss in New Yorker, that's the corker!

That Chuck, he's ONE LUCKY GUY.
