If you have a friend on whom you think you can rely - You are a lucky man! If you've found the reason to live on and not to die - You are a lucky man! Preachers and poets and scholars don't know it Temples and statues and steeples won't show it If you've got the secret just try not to blow it - Stay a lucky man!
If you've found the meaning of the truth in this old world- You are a lucky man! If knowledge hangs around your neck like pearls instead of chains - You are a lucky man! Takers and fakers and talkers won't tell you Teachers and preachers will just buy and sell you When no one can tempt you with heaven or hell- You'll be a lucky man!
