Bilingual
Sittin' in a chaise lounge chair
In Tucson, Arizona
Tryin' to get away after too much time
In sweet sweet Caldonia
Out in the distance
A man walks up to me
I'm the gambler Lucky John he says
And he came with a message for me
He said, ya' can't make a livin' outta rollin' dice
Ya' ight get lucky once, maybe even twice
Ya' better take this tip, mark my words
Ya' better take this advice
ย
They call him Big Ben
Because he's always on time
He drives an eighteen wheeler
Like a passenger car
Even though he's half blind
He works twenty days on
And then ten days off
He's got those silver lady mud flaps
He never takes them off
He says there's too much drama
Most of the time
I don't need a mama gonna' change my mind
I get drunk when I want, have my fun
And then I'm down the line
ย
I'm feelin' lucky
Is lady luck, with me tonight?
I'm lonesome hungry
Feelin' like I just might
Well my motor's coolin' at the base of the hill
I'm all cracked up and I can't sit still
And Cal-a-donia's, to blame
Well I try and not dwell on a lost love
That has past
You hope that you're in love forever
But it never seems to last
Well hush now darlin' don't ya' cry
There's no one here, but you and I
And Cal-a-donia's far, far away
And Cal-a-donia's far, far, far, far, far away
