Lucky Seven Sampson — текст песни (Various Artists)

Lyrics & Music by: Bob Dorough
Performed by: Bob Dorough
Now you can call me lucky,`cause Lucky`s my name.
Singin`and dancin`, that`s my game.
I never did a whole day`s work in my life,
Still everything seems to turn out right.
Like a grasshopper on a summer`s day,
I just love to play
And pass the time away,
`Cause I was born `neath a lucky star.
They said I`d go far.
Makin` people happy, that`s my favorite game.
Lucky Seven is my natural name.
Slippin` and slidin` my whole life through,
Still I get everything done that I got to do,
`Cause I was born `neath a lucky star.
School is where you are?
Aw, that`s not hard.
Let me show you something.
You multiply 7 x 1,
I got 7 days to get that problem done.
Multiply 7 x 2,
Take 14 laughs When you`re feeling blue.
Multiply 7 x 3,
A 21 -day vacation you can play with me.
Multiply 7 x 4,
You got 28 days (that`s a one month more)
To pay the mortgage on your store.
Don`t worry. Something will turn up!
Multiply 7 x 5,
I don`t know how you did it, but man alive, that`s 35.
Multiply 7 x 6,
Grab a stick and make a 42 cliCkety-clicks.
Multiply 7 x 7,
Take 49 steps right up to seventh heaven.
Multiply 7 x 8,
They got 56 flavors and I just can`t wait.
Multiply 7 x 9,
63 musicians, all friends of mine.
Multiply 7 x 10,
And that brings you right back to 70 again.
You know, I think that`s important.
There`s a trick there somewhere.
Multiply 7 x 11,
Even a rabbit knows that`s 70 plus 7.
Multiply 7 x 12,
You got 84, and isn`t that swell.
I`m gonna try 7 x 13, just for fun,
70 plus 21.
7x 14 must be great.
Well, exactly, that`s a 70 plus 28.
7 x 15, man alive
That`s 70 plus 35 ... 105!
Man, this stuff is simple-no jive.
You got it, now I gotta fly.
Excuse me folks, I`m saying good-bye.
I sure do thank you for the huckleberry pie.
Take it home, boys.
Remember Lucky Seven Sampson that`s my
natural-born name. if you should ask me again, I`d have
to tell you the same. You`ll wake up tomorrow, you`ll be
glad that I came `Cause you`ll be singin` one of the
songs that I sang. So keep a happy outlook and be
good to your friend, and maybe I`ll pass this way again.
Maybe!
Bye.
