My old man worked hard all his life   Never had that much to show   Next door neighbour bought a lottery ticket   Now he's rollin' in that Powerball dough      Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky   Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky      Our hometown Queen had the guys all lined up   With diamonds, debills and degrees   Well who'da ever thought that she'd run off    With a guitar plyayer like me      Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky   Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky      I never had nothing turn out like I planned   Fate deals the cards and I play the hand      Well it's good day when your buddy buys lunch   And every light you hit turns green   And your girlfriend can't keep her hands off you   If you know what I mean      Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky   Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky      I never had nothing turn out like I planned   Yeah fate deals the cards and I play the hand      Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky   Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky   Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky   Hard work never hurt nobody but I'd rather be lucky      Na Na Na Na Na   Na Na Na Na Na   Na Na Na Na Na   Na Na Na Na Na
