“The Lottery Song” Lyrics - Harry Nilsson

Lyrics

“The Lottery Song”


You could do the laundry

I’ll come by on Monday

You give me the money

I will buy a ticket


On the local lottery

We could win the lottery

We could go to Vegas

And be very happy


I could be a plumber

We could wait till summer

We could save our money


Have a fine vacation

We could buy a trailer

If we bought a trailer

We could go to Vegas


And be very happy

(“Ooh Loo’s”)If life is just gamble,

Gamble if you want to win

(more “ooh loo’s”)–life can be so easy


Let the wheel of fortune spin)

(Or we could make a record

Sell a lot of copies

We could play Las Vegas


And be very happy)

(“Ooh Loo’s”)–If life is just gamble,

Gamble if you want to win

(more “ooh loo’s”)–life can be so easy

Let the wheel of fortune spin)
