"Lucky For Me"


The version posted here is actually a 1985 rewrite of a song originally written in 1984. The only difference is the addition of a second verse.

Lucky For Me


© 1984 Brian Hutzell

I met a friend of yours
She didn't know me
I never mentioned your name
She didn't know I knew you
She said you knew each other
And she told me something else
She told me 'bout your reputation
The one I'd overlooked so long

She said you try to sleep with everyone you meet
She said you lie, you cheat
You're no woman, you're a pretty thief
She said you'll cry and scream
Do anything to get your way
Lucky for me she told me this, lucky for me

Lucky for me I found a source of information
Lucky for me I was informed before humiliation
Lucky for me I found a source of information
Lucky for me, lucky for me, lucky for me

I met a friend of yours - a former lover
We'd never met before
He said I should avoid you
He said you met in Winter
Lived together through the Spring
By Summer he could not believe you
You tripped him up and watched him Fall

He said you try to sleep with everyone you meet
He said you lie, you cheat
You're no woman, you're a pretty thief
He said you'll cry and scream
Do anything to get your way
Lucky for me he told me this, lucky for me

While he was talkin' I was shakin'
I was hopin' he was makin'
Up the stories he was tellin'
He was draggin' me through hell
And I was thinkin' I'd be leavin' you
Because I had a reason to

He said you try to sleep with everyone you meet
He said you lie, you cheat
You're no woman, you're a pretty thief
And that is why I'm going to leave
I'm gonna go away
Lucky for me he told me this, lucky for me

Lucky for me I found a source of information
Lucky for me I was informed before humiliation
Lucky for me I found a source of information
Lucky for me, lucky for me, lucky for me

Lucky for me
