Lyrics
When I was just a boy
I never ever cried
It simply wasn't my design
And sometimes things were bad
And I'd just get real mad
And I would set my room on fire
But I was cool
And no one ever took me for a fool
Lucky man, haven't I?
Lucky man, which is alright
Kind of thing
A lucky man
I'd sit and watch the rain
And I would feel the pain
I believe them teardrops shed for me
My daddy went out to work
Mama soiled her hands in the dirt
For a future they could not forsee
A different time
With a different attitude to crime
Lucky man, haven't I?
Lucky man, which is alright
Kind of thing
A lucky man
All the other boys and girls
I never played my games with them
They just lived from season to season
Never really knew the reason
But now they've all gone away
And I sit and wait all day
No one ever comes in my white room
Save the kindly sister Joan
She knows I like to be alone
She says I'll be leaving there soon
And she's so cool
And no one ever takes her for a fool
Lucky man, haven't I?
Lucky man, which is alright
Kind of thing
A lucky man
All the other boys and girls
I never played my games with them
They just lived from season to season
Never really knew the reason
Lucky man, haven't I?
Lucky man, which is alright
Kind of thing
A lucky man
