The Alan Price Set - Oh Lucky Man

If you have a friend on whom you think you can rely 
You are a lucky man
If you've found the reason to live on and not to die
You are a lucky man
Preachers and poets and scholars don't know it
Temples and statues and steeples won't show it
If you've got the secret just try not to blow it
Stay a lucky man! lucky man!

If you've found the meaning of the [bad word] in this old world
You are a lucky man
If knowledge hangs around your neck like pearls instead of chains
You are a lucky man
Takers and fakers and talkers won't tell you
Teachers and preachers will just buy and sell you
When no one can tempt you with heaven or [bad word] 
You'll be a lucky man

Takers and fakers and talkers won't tell you
Teachers and preachers will just buy and sell you
When no one can tempt you with heaven or [bad word] 
You'll be a lucky man

You'll be better by far to be just what you are
You can be what you want if you are what you are
And that's a lucky man!
Oh yeah, a lucky man
And that's a lucky, a lucky, a lucky man
lucky, a lucky, a lucky man
