Writer(s): loesser They call you lady luck But there is room for doubt At times you have a very un-lady-like way Of running out Your on this date with me The pickin's have been lush And yet before the evening is over You might give me the brush You might forget your manners You might refuse to stay And so the best that i can do is pray Luck be a lady tonight Luck be a lady tonight Luck if you've been a lady to begin with Luck be a lady tonight Luck let a gentleman see Just how nice a dame you can be I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with Luck be a lady with me A lady never leaves her escort It isn't fair, it isn't nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guys dice Lets keep this party polite Never get out of my sight Stick with me baby, i'm the guy that you came in with Luck be a lady tonight A lady never flirts with strangers She'd have a heart, she'd be nice A lady doesn't wander all over the room And blow on some other guys dice Lets keep this party polite Never get out of my sight Stick with me baby, i'm the guy that you came in with Luck be a lady tonight
