Lucky Man (recorded live at the Metropolitan Theater, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on August 16, 1997) Songtext
von Emerson, Lake & Palmer

He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door

Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was

White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was led


Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was

He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing

Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was

A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died


Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
