"Better Luck Next Time" That Could Never Be,
Because There Ain't Gonna Be No Next Time For Me . . .
No Siree,made Up My Mind To Make Another Start,
I've Made My Mind Up But I Can't Make Up My Heart . . .

I'd Like A New Lucky Day, That Would Be Nice,
But This Comes Just Once In A Lifetime, Not Twice . . .
So Don't Say, "Better Luck Next Time, That Could Never Be"
Because There Ain't Gonna Be No Next Time For Me . . .



I Would Like A New Lucky Day, That Would Be Nice,
But This Comes Just Once In A Lifetime, Not Twice . . .
So Don't Say, "Better Luck Next Time", That Could Never Be,
Because There Ain't Gonna Be No Next Time For Me . . .
There Ain't Gonna Be No Next Time For Me . . .
