Quinella

(альбом: Quinella - 1981)

Oh, the quinella
I hit the jackpot
Finally, I got it all
Right when they had me
Backed up against the wall

Such a lucky fella
That's what I am
And I don't give a damn if I die
I hit the quinella
I picked a winner this time

So, break out the champagne
Let's have a party
I got money
And money was made to spend
Here's to the winner
Everybody loves a winner
Here's to all outsiders looking in
I was a rank outsider
Yes, I was
Oh, but not no more, honey

So come on, Cinderella
Let's take a long shot
We got a red-hot hand
Don't ask them questions
I'll take it any way I can

Ooh, sweet quinella
I hit a home run
That makes me one and oh
So, shake my hand
I'm the luckiest man you know

Everybody, break out the champagne
Let's have a party
I got money
And money was made to spend
Oh yes, it was
Here's to the winner
Everybody loves a winner
Here's to all outsiders looking in
I was a rank outsider (a rank outsider)
Yes, I was

Whoa, sweet quinella
I hit a long shot
Finally, I got it all
Right when they had me
Backed up against the wall

Look at this lucky fella
That's what I am
And I don't give a damn if I die
I hit the quinella
I picked a winner this time

Oh come on, break out the champagne
Let's have a party
I got a pocket full of money
I was made to spend
Here's to the winner
Everybody loves a winner
Here's to all outsiders looking in
I was a rank outsider
But not no more
