Loading...

[nellie, spoken]
oh miss jane, ain’t no use of worryin’! floyd’s got the luck; it circles ’round him. he told me so! he maybe told you one bad dream, but he done tol’ me hundreds of good’uns.​

he says to me, “it’s gonna turn out just like a fairytale nell.” he holds me right in his hands and says to me:

(sung)
lucky’s what i am
ain’t no sucklin’ baby lamb
sure as h-ll don’t give a d-mn
for what they think ’bout me

lucky, in his way
buzzin’ in my gut today
like a choir of crickets singin’
we’re gonna sell some tickets, singin’:

how’s about a radio?
how’s about a new car, y’know?
how’s about a valley farm?
how’s about a boy on my arm?
gonna git a little respect
gonna hold our heads up erect
gonna show ’em what we got;
show ’em what we will take
and will not now
and what we got now
is a lot now

no, no, don’t you fret;
i ain’t told you nothing yet
we gonna sing a cave duet
inside a magic dome

’cause being near to him
i know i’m truly lucky
now that i’ve come home

[miss jane, spoken]
but when dreams talk, nellie, you best heed’ em. you listenin’ to me? you learn to doubt things. you don’t fool with dreams like that.​

[nellie, sung]
doubtin’ never did us any good
why’d you wanna fill us up with doubt?
doubtin’ never did us, no, not one lick of good;
why don’t you just help us out
like you should?

oh, let us dream some

[miss jane]
go an’ dream

[nellie]
let us scheme a caving scheme
if what he says is there, is there
and god is good
and fair is fair

we’re sittin’ on a pile of dough
higher than a grain silo!

[miss jane]
think of all the lofty ways
think of all the lazy days…

[nellie]
we could take a trip somewhere…

[miss jane]
anywhere at all, i don’t care

[nellie]
git me in a model a
i could roll the whole day away, now

[miss jane]
you don’t say now!

[nellie]
let’s pray now:

[nellie & miss jane]
good news ’round the bend;
trouble days is gonna end

[miss jane]
even broken hopes’ll mend
’cause things ain’t what they seem
[miss jane]
so lonesome nellie girl
my little pearl
my dreamer:
dream [nellie]
ooo….
ooo….
ooo….
ooo, how i love to dream…

[miss jane & nellie]
’cause you’ve (i’ve) come home
and i feel lucky!
lucky!
lucky!
