"'Lucky' took me a little while to get to the arrangement. The song is about finally settling into being okay, and 'I want to see how lucky, Lucky can be'; Lucky is a nickname for myself. The feeling of the song is very up. With that old guitar lick from James Harrah, that Andrew Gold feeling, '70s guitar, it's just fun." - Melissa Etheridge
I want to see how lucky Lucky can be
I saw you through my blind intoxication My shock induced insane self medication You looked at me and smiled Said get ready to get wild Sugar you just need a brief vacation
I want to see how lucky Lucky can be I want to ride with my Angel and live shockingly I want to drive to the edge and into the sea I want to see how lucky Lucky can be
I was dried up I was starving I was mangled I looked like hell twisted up and tangled You whispered in my ear The ghosts are gone it's clear For too long you've been tied up you've been strangled
I want to see how lucky Lucky can be I want to ride with my Angel and live shockingly I want to drive to the edge and into the sea I want to see how lucky Lucky can be
I don't want to ride on the shotgun side Don't want to be a quaint observer on this super sonic ride Double down split the aces to the races I feel lucky tonight
