You could do the laundry
I'll come by on Monday
You give me the money
I will buy a ticket
On the local lottery
We could win the lottery
We could go to Vegas
And be very happy
("Ooh Loo's")
(Or) I could be a plumber
We could wait till summer
We could save our money
Have a fine vacation
We could buy a trailer
If we bought a trailer
We could go to Vegas
And be very happy
("Ooh Loo's")If life is just gamble,
Gamble if you want to win
(more "ooh loo's")--life can be so easy
let the wheel of fortune spin)
(Or we could make a record
Sell a lot of copies
we could play Las Vegas
And be very happy)
("Ooh Loo's")--If life is just gamble,
Gamble if you want to win
(more "ooh loo's")--life can be so easy
let the wheel of fortune spin)
