Song of the Day: Lucky Man (Montgomery Gentry)

Lucky Man by Montgomery Gentry

Album: Some People Change
Genre: Country

Released: 2006

Just when you think the world is against you and things aren't going your way you have to sit back and think about all things you do have. Some people aren't as fortunate to have those things. Some people work at jobs they hate just to be able to put food on the table or have a place to live. If you have job you love, don't take it for granted because you could be doing something worse. 

Lyrics: 

I have days where I hate my job

This little town, and the whole world too

Last Sunday when the Bengals lost

Lord, it put me in a bad mood

I have moments when I curse the rain

Then complain when the sun's too hot

I look around at what everyone has

And I forget about all I've got

But I know I'm a lucky man

God's given me a pretty fair hand

Got a house and a piece of land

A few dollars in a coffee can

My old truck's still running good

My ticker's ticking like they say it should

I got supper in the oven, a good woman's loving

And one more day to be my little kid's dad

Lord, knows I'm a lucky man

Got some friends who would be here fast

I could call 'em any time of day

Got a brother who's got my back

Got a mama who I swear's a saint

Got a brand new rod and reel

Got a full week off this year

Dad had a close call last spring

It's a miracle he's still here

But I know I'm a lucky man

God's given me a pretty fair hand

Got a house and a piece of land

A few dollars in a coffee can

My old truck's still running good

My ticker's ticking like they say it should

I got supper in the oven, a good woman's loving

And one more day to be my little kid's dad

Lord, knows I'm a lucky man

My old truck's still running good

My ticker's ticking like they say it should

I got supper in the oven, a good woman's loving

And even my bad days ain't that bad

Yeah, I'm a lucky man

I'm a lucky lucky man
