Just Our Luck Lyrics by Gregg Edelman, Sara Gettelfinger, Joe De Paul, Stan Brown (Actor), Marissa Rosen

Water for Elephants (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2024

[MR. JANKOWSKI]
Every circus needs a star
To keep the bleachers packed
[BARBARA]
But even that's not guaranteed
To keep you in the black
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
It takes good luck and it takes good sense
[WALTER]
Your boat is sunk
[CAMEL]
When both are spent
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER & CAMEL]
But one man's misfortune is another one's rent
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
It's just our luck
Just our luck
[BARBARA]
They had a five-car menagerie
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Just our luck
[CAMEL]
Guess it was too many mouths to feed
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Just our luck
[WALTER]
We got the pick of the litter
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
One man's disaster buys another man's dinner
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
One man's disaster buys another man's dinner
Nothing's free and luck's not the exception to the rule
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Pony up or kiss your luck goodbye
So take your chances, take your lumps
Don't take it for granted or take it from us
Or take it all with a grain of dust
It's just our luck
Just our luck
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
Right place, right time
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Just our luck
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
The stars align
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Just our luck
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
It might seem unkind
But one man's pulp is another man's rind
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
One man's pulp is another man's rind
But we won't crow
No, we won't blow
Just 'cause you're up
Don't mean you'll float
So count your stars
Better count them twice
All your hard work and perseverance
Might just disappear, it's
All the roll of loaded dice
Just our luck
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
But don't get cozy
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Just our luck
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
Our future’s rosy
[MR. JANKOWSKI, BARBARA, WALTER, CAMEL & TWO WOMEN]
Just our luck
[MR. JANKOWSKI]
But if Rosie don't show
We'll all go broke in Chicago
