Loverboy - Lucky Ones Lyrics






Don't ask me how, but guess who hit the big time
Don't look now but guess whose back in town
It's so easy don't even have to try
Your the winner you can take the prize

It's a dream come true which one will it be
It's a dream come true we'll just wait and see

Only the lucky one's get to steal the show
Only the lucky one's really get to know
Only the lucky, Only the lucky one's get Lucky

Same old story somethings never change
With a beautiful girl everything's prearranged
Your whole life it comes to you for free
You wear it well it comes so naturally

It's a dream come true which one will it be
It's a dream come true we'll just wait and see

Only the lucky one's get to steal the show
Only the lucky one's really get to know
Only the lucky, Only the lucky one's

[Solo]

Don't ask me how, but guess who hit the big time
Don't look now but guess whose back in town
It comes so easy don't even have to try
You're the winner you can take the prize

Lucky ones
Only the lucky one's really get to know
Only the lucky, Only the lucky one's

  70. K.... P....

    Oh yeah, i was seeing a guy driving a black firebird, in 1979,,loved that car but this song reminds me of him and the awesome car

  71. K.... P....

    Just saw them at the Mountain Winery in Saratoga, CA. They were superb. Mike Reno rocks.

  72. J.... S....

    One of their top 3 songs.Vastly underrated!

  73. S.... W....

    How true this song is.....chicks play it well....😂😂😂😋

  74. c.... M....

    These guys were huge back in the 1980's,what happened?

  75. c.... M....

    Actual footage from 1981!

  76. c.... M....

    Actual footage from 1981!

  77. A.... F....

    New to me sounds great just like wine never gets old only better with time

  78. M.... S....

    Fuck yeah

  79. P.... B....

    Nostalgic fur sure... lol but thank goodness music has evolved since 82’. I was in my teens and young and naive when lover boy was at the pinnacle of their career but compared to the music I listen to now, they just can’t compare. Lover boy is no longer the “the lucky ones”. That’s reserved for the music of 2018. I’m 51 and after hearing this song from so long ago, I can honestly say my taste in music has substantially improved over the years. Grateful for that and would no way want to revisit the 80’s.

    P.... B....

    Troll much?

  80. D.... C....

    Scott Smith, Bassist for Loverboy, was lost at sea in November 2000, when a large wave swept him off his boat in the San Francisco Bay. His body was never found. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Smith_(musician)

  81. U.... U....

    BEST OF THE BEST! MOST AMAZING SONG EVER!!

  82. S.... S....

    One of the best solos of all time.

  83. w.... ....

    He & Bono sound a lot alike to me, love both voices

  84. R.... M....

    What album was this taken from? Get Lucky or Keep It Up?

    R.... M....

    Get Lucky.

  85. H.... ....

    They've always claimed this song was written about girls in a beauty pageant but it's so obvious that it was about their sudden rise to fame. Just listen to the lyrics.

    H.... ....

    HELLH0WND ....”With the beautiful girls, everything’s prearranged”

  86. S.... 3....

    Rip Scott

    S.... 3....

    Yeah I was shocked when I found out he was lost at sea

  87. T.... V....

    What an album.

  88. j.... j....

    i always thought that in this song and at the 3.00 minute mark of this song that mike reno was singing,,, "niggah don't axe me how, but guess who hit the big time". you have to listen closely to it, it's very subtle.

    j.... j....

    I heard "But don't ask me how"

    j.... j....

    walter34- lol, thanks, so,,,, he's very quickly saying "but" in front of "don't ask me how",,,, is that right?? ya,,,, sounds like it, but it is still funny to think of him saying what i thought, even though i knew he wasn't saying what i thought. i always would say that to myself when singing along with the song. lol. thanks.

  89. j.... j....

    i always thought that emilio estevez looked like mike reno instead of mike reno looking like emilio estevez.

  90. G.... P....

    No thank you!

  91. D.... ....

    Probably my favorite Loverboy song. It isn't very flashy or spectacular, but I like it that way. The guitar riffs are great, Mike Reno brings fire with his vocals, and the band is just firing at all cylinders for sure here. Shame it doesn't get more airplay today.

    D.... ....

    I think this one is pretty damn underrated for sure.

    D.... ....

    This is also my favorite Loverboy song. I wanted to get lucky with Mike Reno in his cowboy boots and those leather pants! 🔥
    My friend even had a vanity plate on her car that said RENO1, we were in love!! 😉

    D.... ....

    My favorite to !!!

    D.... ....

    For whatever reason, this track never received the air play songs such as
    *When It's Over,* or *Working For The Weekend* did. I never understood it. This is my favorite tune from the album...

  92. L.... L....

    Big one for the 80's

  93. J.... L....

    guilty pleasure

  94. E.... E....

    Luci ons

  95. R.... M....

    and , so the beat goes on in San Antonio, Texas ; praise-ing the lord (our) god and redeemer;, for the LORD almighty ; knows we truly live for (him). and to want a girl, means to want to get married/ Huh ! / Bye - bye- as we all know ; lovers lane; can bring some quarrels; but if you don't mess around./ you might get (lucky)./ HUh ! bye - bye- bye-

  96. D.... G....

    loving it

  97. T.... C....

    ,2:25 And after they flat out rock
