O’Reilly Luck(Album Version)

[00:00:01] O'Reilly Luck - Buddy Jewell

[00:00:17] Granddaddy used to sit me on his knee

[00:00:20] And tell me how it was in the old country

[00:00:22] Famine and floods and crops that failed

[00:00:25] I'd listen for hours as he told his tale

[00:00:33] He said "There must have been a curse on the family name"

[00:00:36] But he swore he'd be the one to break that chain

[00:00:39] With money he saved from the sweat of his brow

[00:00:42] He'd get 'em out of there someday somehow

[00:00:47] Well he never was much of a gambin' man

[00:00:50] But he dreamed of passage to the Promised Land

[00:00:53] Bet it all on a better life in America

[00:00:58] He said "We'll change our fate and this danged O'Reilly Luck"

[00:01:08] I can only imagine the look on his face

[00:01:11] Tickets in hand as they counted the days

[00:01:14] Eleven passports no turnin' back

[00:01:17] Decidin' what they should and shouldn't pack

[00:01:25] But the baby caught the fever just days before

[00:01:28] And the doctor hung a sheet on their front door

[00:01:31] For two long weeks they were quarantined

[00:01:34] Stranded with nothin' but his shattered dream

[00:01:39] Well he never was much of a gambin' man

[00:01:41] But he dreamed of passage to the Promised Land

[00:01:45] Bet it all on a better life in America

[00:01:50] He said "We'll change our fate and this danged O'Reilly Luck"

[00:02:16] Granddaddy told this story 'til he passed away

[00:02:21] How the people all cheered from the dock that day

[00:02:27] While he shook his fist with a tear in his eye

[00:02:32] At the beautiful ship of the White Star Line

[00:02:38] And he cursed his fate and his danged O'Reilly Luck

[00:02:43] As the mighty Titanic sailed into the sun

[00:02:56] Well he never was much of a gambin' man

[00:02:59] But he found his way to the Promised Land

[00:03:02] Bet it all on a better life in America

[00:03:08] He said "We'll change our fate and this danged O'Reilly Luck

[00:03:12] Danged O'Relly Luck "
