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! If you've found the meaning of the truth 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 hell- You'll be a lucky man!
