Lucky Seven - Various Artists Various Artists Schoolhouse Rock 2 Lucky Seven Sampson Lyrics & Music by: Bob Dorough Performed by: Bob Dorough Now you can call me lucky,'cause Lucky's my name. Singin'and dancin', that's my game. I never did a whole day's work in my life, Still everything seems to turn out right. Like a grasshopper on a summer's day, I just love to play And pass the time away, 'Cause I was born 'neath a lucky star. They said I'd go far. Makin' people happy, that's my favorite game. Lucky Seven is my natural name. Slippin' and slidin' my whole life through, Still I get everything done that I got to do, 'Cause I was born 'neath a lucky star. School is where you are? Aw, that's not hard. Let me show you something. You multiply 7 x 1, I got 7 days to get that problem done. Multiply 7 x 2, Take 14 laughs When you're feeling blue. Multiply 7 x 3, A 21 -day vacation you can play with me. Multiply 7 x 4, You got 28 days (that's a one month more) To pay the mortgage on your store. Don't worry. Something will turn up! Multiply 7 x 5, I don't know how you did it, but man alive, that's 35. Multiply 7 x 6, Grab a stick and make a 42 cliCkety-clicks. Multiply 7 x 7, Take 49 steps right up to seventh heaven. Multiply 7 x 8, They got 56 flavors and I just can't wait. Multiply 7 x 9, 63 musicians, all friends of mine. Multiply 7 x 10, And that brings you right back to 70 again. You know, I think that's important. There's a trick there somewhere. Multiply 7 x 11, Even a rabbit knows that's 70 plus 7. Multiply 7 x 12, You got 84, and isn't that swell. I'm gonna try 7 x 13, just for fun, 70 plus 21. 7x 14 must be great. Well, exactly, that's a 70 plus 28. 7 x 15, man alive That's 70 plus 35 ... 105! Man, this stuff is simple-no jive. You got it, now I gotta fly. Excuse me folks, I'm saying good-bye. I sure do thank you for the huckleberry pie. Take it home, boys. Remember Lucky Seven Sampson that's my natural-born name. if you should ask me again, I'd have to tell you the same. You'll wake up tomorrow, you'll be glad that I came 'Cause you'll be singin' one of the songs that I sang. So keep a happy outlook and be good to your friend, and maybe I'll pass this way again. Maybe! Bye.
