He's got lucky arms

He gets to hold her

The way I know I never will again

They're dancing close

With her head on his shoulder

Lucky arms, lucky heart, lucky him



They don't see me standing in these shadows

She don't know how bad my heart still aches

He's holding on to everything I let go

Sure is making good off my mistakes



He's got lucky arms

He gets to hold her

The way I know I never will again

They're dancing close

With her head on his shoulder

Lucky arms, lucky heart, lucky him



Before too long the music will stop playing

He'll take her hand and then he'll take her home

And I can just imagine what he's saying

The way he's smiling I can tell he knows



He's got lucky arms

He gets to hold her

The way I know I never will again

They're dancing close

With her head on his shoulder

Lucky arms, lucky heart, lucky him

Lucky arms, lucky heart

He ought to thank his lucky stars

Lucky arms, lucky heart, lucky him
