Lucky Seven Sampson (7's)

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 seemed 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 seven times one
I got seven days to get that problem done
Multiply seven times two
Take 14 laughs when you're feelin' blue
Multiply seven times three
A 21-day vacation, you can play with me
Multiply seven times four
You got 28 days, that's-a one month more
To pay the mortgage on your store, don't worry
Somethin' will turn up! Yeah

Multiply seven times five
I don't know how you did it, but man alive, that's 35
Multiply seven times six
Grab a stick and make 42 clickity-clicks
Multiply seven times seven
Take 49 steps right up to seventh heaven
Multiply seven times eight
They got 56 flavors and I just can't wait
Multiply seven times nine
63 musicians, all friends of mine
Multiply seven times ten
And that brings you right back to 70 again
You know, I think that's important!
There's a trick there somewhere

Multiply seven times 11
Even a rabbit knows that's seventy plus seven
Multiply seven times 12
You got 84, and isn't that swell?
I'm gonna try seven times 13 just for fun
Seventy plus 21
Seven times 14 must be great
Well exactly, that's-a seventy plus 28
Seven times 15, man alive
That's seventy plus 35, 105!
Man, this stuff is simple, no jive!
You got it, and I gotta fly
Excuse me folks, I'm sayin' goodbye
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 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!
