Unlucky Number Lyrics

Mama didn't eat last night

Said 13 is an unlucky number

Set the table for 12 and didn't have a bite

Said that she had lost her appetite

Daddy didn't sleep last night

Said 13 is an unlucky number

Even though he loves those Stars and Stripes

Said that wasn't any reason to start a fight

Oh my cards are on the table and I know just what to do

Deal them out in suits of four and you get 52

Sister didn't sleep last night

Said 13 is an unlucky number

4 months old and not sleeping through the night

She says she hopes to get some rest tonight

Oh my cards are on the table and I know just what to do

Deal them out in suits of four and you get 52

Brother didn't weep last night

Said 13 is an unlucky number

Said the moon was shining in his eyes

And he's been restless far too many times

Grandma didn't sleep last night

Said 13 is an unlucky number

Said that Friday's playing on her mind

And she won't be takin' chances this time

Oh my cards are on the table and I know just what to do

Deal them out in suits of four and you get 52

My cards are on the table and I know just what to do

Deal them out in suits of four and you get 52

Grandpa didn't sleep last night

Said 13 is an unlucky number

Said that now that winter's here to stay

Maybe it's time to make his getaway

Maybe it's time to make his getaway
