Wishing I Was Lucky (12" Version)

He would swear by his mouth almighty 

I was living in a world of make believe 
When my best friend wrote and told me 
That there may be a job in the city 
I was living in a world of make believe 
When my best friend wrote and told me 
That there may be a job in the city 
And you never told me 

He would dream about another scheme 
About another sordid hall of dreams 
About a man who's king of industry 
He would swear by his mouth almighty 
He would buy the best 
But never something new 
And he never told me 

I like kicking in the gutter and 
Wishing I was lucky 
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky 
Oh, I like kicking in the gutter 
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky 

It's the only life I know 

Lie, lie , lie is all you ever do 
To make me want to push on through 
Cry, cry, cry is all I ever do 
Say you want to make me push on through 

I like kicking in the gutter and 
Wishing I was lucky 
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky 
Oh, I like kicking in the gutter 
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky 
Kicking in the gutter 
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky 

It's the only life I know 

My best friend wrote and told me so 
He said, that there may be a job in the city, yeah, yeah yeah, oh baby 
I like kicking in the gutter and wishing I was lucky 
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky 
I like kicking in the gutter, wishing I was lucky 
I was wishing I was lucky, 
Kicking in the gutter 
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky 

Hey son go, hey son go, to the city [Repeat: x4]
