I can't get no money for my pockets
I can't get into the swing of things
Someone keeps my picture in her locket
And she patches up the hole in my dreams
Lucky arms, I got the world in my arms
I ain't got no money but I got honey
Keep all your cash and spend it
I'll still be independent
'Cause I've got the world in my arms
Hey, mister rainy skies, dry your eyes
So you can see my special girl
My arms are full of country, country sunshine
And we're hurrying to the top of the world
Oh, lucky arms I got the world in my arms
I ain't got no money but I got honey
Keep all your cash and spend it
I'll still be independent
'Cause I've got the world in my arms
