Lyrics & Music by: Bob Dorough

Performed by: Bob Dorough









Now you can call me lucky,'cause Lucky's my name.

Singin'and dancin', that's my game.

I never did a whole day's work in my life,

Still everything seems to turn out right.

Like a grasshopper on a summer's day,

I just love to play

And pass the time away,

'Cause I was born 'neath a lucky star.

They said I'd go far.



Makin' people happy, that's my favorite game.

Lucky Seven is my natural name.

Slippin' and slidin' my whole life through,

Still I get everything done that I got to do,

'Cause I was born 'neath a lucky star.



School is where you are?

Aw, that's not hard.

Let me show you something.



You multiply 7 x 1,

I got 7 days to get that problem done.

Multiply 7 x 2,

Take 14 laughs When you're feeling blue.

Multiply 7 x 3,

A 21 -day vacation you can play with me.

Multiply 7 x 4,

You got 28 days (that's a one month more)

To pay the mortgage on your store.

Don't worry. Something will turn up!



Multiply 7 x 5,

I don't know how you did it, but man alive, that's 35.

Multiply 7 x 6,

Grab a stick and make a 42 cliCkety-clicks.

Multiply 7 x 7,

Take 49 steps right up to seventh heaven.

Multiply 7 x 8,

They got 56 flavors and I just can't wait.

Multiply 7 x 9,

63 musicians, all friends of mine.

Multiply 7 x 10,

And that brings you right back to 70 again.



You know, I think that's important.

There's a trick there somewhere.



Multiply 7 x 11,

Even a rabbit knows that's 70 plus 7.

Multiply 7 x 12,

You got 84, and isn't that swell.

I'm gonna try 7 x 13, just for fun,

70 plus 21.

7x 14 must be great.

Well, exactly, that's a 70 plus 28.

7 x 15, man alive

That's 70 plus 35 ... 105!



Man, this stuff is simple-no jive.

You got it, now I gotta fly.

Excuse me folks, I'm saying good-bye.

I sure do thank you for the huckleberry pie.

Take it home, boys.



Remember Lucky Seven Sampson that's my

natural-born name. if you should ask me again, I'd have

to tell you the same. You'll wake up tomorrow, you'll be

glad that I came 'Cause you'll be singin' one of the

songs that I sang. So keep a happy outlook and be

good to your friend, and maybe I'll pass this way again.



Maybe!



Bye
