The Lottery - Song# 25

The Lottery by Rich Baker

The lottery keeps me lazy
Because I know there’s a chance
A chance to get all the money I want
Without putting on nice pants

Of course, I’d love to be rich
No need to work hard all the time
Savings and investments, forget it
I’ll go the easy route for my dime

(Chorus)
The lottery!
Millions of dollars just for me
The lottery!
All my troubles gone away
The lottery!
Spend it right and it’ll last
The lottery!
I’ll never work another day

Pick my numbers and then I hope
Use a system to up my odds
Chances are they’ll come up soon
Big houses, fine suits, hot rods

I’ll buy whatever I want to buy
No debt, no worry over bills
The stresses of life melt awy
Even if I get sick I can afford the pills

(Chorus)
The lottery!
More money than I can even count
The lottery!
Freedom from everything that binds
The lottery!
I can dream of it all day
The lottery!
I’ll own everything and all kinds

(Bridge)
Mo money, mo problems?
Yeah right. I’d like 56 million problems
I don’t wanna scrimp and save and earn
I wanna win so much I have money to burn
Every week a disappointment so far,
But I have my sights set on my new car
It’ll happen soon. I just has to
If I don’t win, I don’t know what I’ll do

The lottery!
