Teatro - Luck Be a Lady [From Guys and Dolls] Lyrics

They call you Lady Luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very unladylike way of running out
You're on this date with me

The pickings have been lush
And yet before this 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 ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight

Luck, let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be
I've know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me

A lady doesn't leave her escort
It isn't fair, it ain't nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guy's dice

So let's keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me, baby, I'm the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

A lady wouldn't flirt with strangers
She'd have a heart, she'd have a soul
A lady wouldn't make little snake eyes at me
When I've got my life on this roll

So let's keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby I'm the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady tonight
