Great Big Sea - Lucky Me Lyrics

He was born a sailors son
Nothing came easy or free
He suffered the squalls all the rises and falls
And everything else in between
But he says storms always fade after they've had their way
They're never as bad as they seem

as long as the rivers still run to the seas
Hey lucky you, lucky me

who'd ever thought for a moment
She'd have to grow up so fast
School beauty queen with a child at sixteen
Swore that her fortunes had passed
But blessings can hide in the strangest disguise
I know that she would agree

Hey look at me in the spotlight
Ripped jeans and rock and roll hair
Feeling so cool but I'd be such a fool
Singing to no one out there
So hey take a bow every band needs a crowd
And I've got a song we can sing
