《Get Lucky》 作词 : Mark Knopfler
Got no books in my house
Got no time for those
No room in my closets
Closets full of clothes
Garage full of wheels, babe
Boat house full of boat
The lifestyle ideal, babe
That's what gets my vote
All the villas on the hillsides
Gotta have a view of the sea
Pillars of the empire
Way back in history
You have slaves for the galleys and the kitchens
Gardens and the vines
Slaves for the beautiful people
Bring water, food, and wine
A slave to tie your bib
Another one to carry it
So now I'll take my crypt
Diggin' my chariot, dig my crypt
And my long black Cadillac
Coming for to carry me home, dig my crypt
And my long black Cadillac
Coming for to carry me home
England calls me vulgar
I'd call myself refined
Good bye, old England
Simon's off to sunny climes
Look who's doin' it now, babe
Look who's doin it now
Look who's doin' it now, babe
Look who's doin it now
Always was an early bird
With something on the side
Better buy this, better buy that
Maybe let that baby ride
Out here every day it's hot
And I'm talking to my men
Working this, working that
Working on my master plan
A slave to tie my bib
Another one to carry it
So now I'll dig my crypt
Diggin' my chariot; dig my crypt
And my long black Cadillac
Coming for to carry me home, dig my crypt
And my long black Cadillac
Coming for to carry me home
Now here's the hot-tub; here's the gym
Here's the pool that I swam in
Up the stairs my footprints led
To the bedroom to my bed
Up the stairs my footprints led
To where I lay my bosom head
Sleep the long sleep of the dead
I'm and early bird; that's what I said
Early bird
Early bird
Oo, I'm an early bird
