Lyrics:

I’M NOT SAYING THAT I’M SOMETHING SPECIAL
BUT YOU MIGHT KNOW MY NAME TO SOME DEGREE
SOMETIMES I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT I’M STILL STANDING
AND IT FEELS PRETTY GOOD TO BE ME

I GET TO LIVE OUT HERE IN CALIFORNIA
I’VE GOT A PALM TREE AND A SWIMMING POOL
HAVE SOME FUN AND TRY TO PLAY MY MUSIC
WAS ALL I REALLY SET OUT TO DO
AND IF ANYBODY ASKS ME “JOE, HOW DO YOU DO IT?
’CAUSE YOU DO IT WITH SUCH STYLE AND GRACE”
I JUST SHAKE MY HEAD AND SMILE, LOOK ’EM
IN THE EYES AND SAY:
“I’M JUST LUCKY THAT WAY. JUST LUCKY'

GOT A GOOD WOMAN AND SHE MAKES ME HAPPY
MOST OF THE TIME I MAKE HER HAPPY TOO
WE DECIDED WE SHOULD LIVE TOGETHER,
SO WE BOTH SAID “I DO”
AND IF SOMEONE SAYS “HEY JOE, I SAW YOU ON TV…
AND HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT TO PLAY?”
I JUST SHAKE MY HEAD AND SMILE, LOOK ’EM IN
THE EYES AND SAY:
“I’M JUST LUCKY THAT WAY.”

I STARTED IN THE MIDDLE OF NO-WHERE…
DIDN’T HAVE FAR TO FALL
AND THE TIMES I THOUGHT WERE THE END
OF THE WORLD
DIDN’T TURN OUT SO BAD AFTER ALL

YEAH, I STARTED IN THE MIDDLE OF NO-WHERE…
DIDN’T HAVE FAR TO FALL
AND THE TIMES I THOUGHT WERE THE END
OF THE WORLD
DIDN’T TURN OUT SO BAD AFTER ALL

I’LL LET YOU ALL IN ON A LITTLE SECRET
IF I CAN SHARE WITH YOU A THING OR TWO
IF YOU JUST ACT LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU’RE DOING…
EVERYBODY THINKS THAT YOU DO
AND IF ANYBODY ASKS ME “JOE, HOW DO YOU DO IT?
’CAUSE YOU DO IT WITH SUCH STYLE AND GRACE”
I JUST SHAKE MY HEAD AND SMILE, LOOK ‘EM IN
THE EYES AND SAY:
“I’M JUST LUCKY
I'M JUST LUCKY
I'M JUST LUCKY THAT WAY…
I'M JUST LUCKY THAT WAY
I'M JUST LUCKY
