Wishing I Was Lucky (Live Version)
Lyrics and Songs by Wet Wet Wet - Go back

Maybe it’s something completely wrong,
Something you can try

I was living in a world of make believe
When my best friend wrote and told me
That there may be a job in the city
I was living in a world of make believe
When my best friend wrote and told me
That there may be a job in the city
And he never told me

He would dream about another scheme
About another sordid hall of dreams
About a man who was king of industry
He would swear by his mouth almighty
He would buy the best
But never something new
And he never told me

I like kicking in the gutter and a
Wishing I was lucky
Oh, Wishing I was lucky,
Oh, I like kicking in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky
Good god y’all

It’s the only life I know

Lie, lie , lie is all you ever do
To make me wanna push on through
Sing cry, cry, cry,cry is all I ever do
To say that’s how you wanna make me push on through

I like kicking in the gutter and a
Wishing I was lucky
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky
Oh, I like kicking in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky
Living in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky

Oh Baby, Oh baby

It’s the only life I know

My best friend wrote and told me so
He said, that there may be a job in the city, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh baby
Oh I like kicking in the gutter and a wishing I was lucky
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky

Won’t you try

I like kicking in the gutter, and a wishing I was lucky
Wishing I was lucky, wishing I was lucky
Oh I like kicking in the gutter
Wishing I was lucky, I was wishing I was lucky

Wishing I was
Wishing I was
Wishing I was
Wishing I was
Wishing I was
Wishing I was
Wishing I was
Wishing I was

This is all about sex and horror
