When I was just a little girl with long and silky curls
My mama told me "Honey, you've got more than other girls"
"Now, you may not be good lookin' but you'll soon wear diamond clips"
"And you'll never have to worry 'cause you've got lucky lips"
Lucky lips are always kissin', lucky lips are never blue
Lucky lips will always find a pair of lips that will be true
I don't need a four-leaf clover, rabbit's foot, or good luck charm
With lucky lips I'll always have a fella in my arms
(With lucky lips I'll always have a fella in my arms)
I never get heartbroken, no, I'll never get the blues
And if I play that game of love, I know I just can't lose
When they spin that wheel of fortune all I do is kiss my chips
And I know I picked a winner 'cause I've got lucky lips
Lucky lips are always kissin', lucky lips are never blue
Lucky lips will always find a pair of lips that will be true
I don't need a four-leaf clover, rabbit's foot, or good luck charm
With lucky lips I'll always have a fella in my arms
With lucky lips I'll always have a fellow in my arms
