How Lucky You Are (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

When the news is all bad,
When you're sour and blue,
When you start to get mad
You should do what I do-

Aaah!

Tell yourself
How lucky you are...

When your life's going wrong
When the fates are unkind
When you're limping along
And get kicked from behind
Tell yourself how lucky you are...

Aaah!

Why decry a cloudy sky
An empty purse
A crazy universe?
My philosophy is simply
Things could be worse!

AH ... AH. AH-CHOO!

EWWW!

So be happy you're here.
Think of life as a thrill
And if worse comes to worse
(As we all know it will)
Thank your lucky star
You've gotten this far...
And tell yourself
How lucky you are!
How lucky, how lucky you are!

That bird let that clover drop somewhere inside
Of a great patch of clovers, one hundred miles wide!
I'll find it, I'll find it! I'll find it or bust!
I shall find my friends on their small speck of dust.
Yes, clover by clover by clover with care
I'll listen and I'll call, are you there?
Are you there?
