The Luckier You Get

The harder you work, the luckier you get

The more you get done, boy, less you'll regret

Write it down so you never forget

The harder you work, the luckier you get

When I turned 13, my old man sat me down

Said, "Boy, there's only two ways out of this town

A Greyhound bus that's boot camp-bound

Put your nose is a book and keep your ear to the ground"

So I set off to college, but it weren't for me

So I got a guitar, started playin' for free

Wrote a couple hundred bad ones 'til I had two or three

I thought I was good enough folks might pay me to sing

The harder you work, the luckier you get

The more you get done, boy, the less you'll regret

Write it down so you never forget

The harder you work, the luckier you get

Heard far less "yeses" than I have "nos"

Seen far less highs than I have lows

Rather get to the top steady and slow

Than get there too fast with nowhere to go

The harder you work, the luckier you get

The more you get done, boy, less you'll regret

Write it down so you never forget

The harder you work, the luckier you get

The harder you work, the luckier you get

The more you get done, boy, less you'll regret
