- All-American?

Does that mean you become a citizen?

Come on, Pat. Don't be an iceberg.

You gotta melt someday.

Mr. Marlowe, haven't I made it

clear to you that I don't like you?

I'll spin you into town tomorrow night.

Have dinner, go dancing, just us two.

I'll pick you up at 6. Okay?

- Quelle effronterie!

- Pat?

- My dear.

- Peter, what is it?

I phoned the dormitory.

There was no call for me at all.

No call?

Well, I think I'd better be going.

Don't forget about tomorrow night.

- I'm glad you could stay, Peter.

- So am I.

I knew when I came down those stairs,

this was going to be my lucky night.

It's like fate.

It was accidental

We just met by chance

Yet I'm very certain

You will be my big romance

Football players bore me

All they've got is health

But, you, my sweet

Are joy complete

Because you've got such wealth

Of culture

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

What else matters

If you're lucky in love?

Good breaks are few

Few skies are blue

But bad luck scattered

When I first looked at you

I don't care

What the future will bring

If we're there together

I won't need a thing

I'll say I'm lucky in love

If you'll take me, that'll make me

Oh, so lucky in love

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Don't you know when you are

Lucky in love?

You're just my speed

Why must I plead?

Oh, come to baby

In her hour of need

I don't care if you're puny and weak

And you've only got

Baby fuzz on your cheek

I love you!

Lucky in love

If you trust me then we must be

- Oh, so lucky in love

- In love

Lucky in love

- You're lucky if you're lucky in love

- You're lucky

- Lucky in love

- You're lucky

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

What else matters

If you're lucky in love?

Good days are few

Few skies are blue

But bad luck scatters

Every time I'm with you

I don't mind if at poker, I'm green

If I stand ace high

With a beautiful queen

I'll say I'm lucky in love

If you'll take me, that'll make me

Oh, so lucky

So darn lucky

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Guess I never will be

Lucky in love

Some girls are gay

Know what to say

But when I talk

I scare the fellows away

If my dream man

Should ever arrive

I can bet he won't

Even know I'm alive

Lucky in love

Must be fun to be someone who's

Oh, so lucky in love

In love, lucky in love

You're lucky if you're lucky in love

You're lucky in love

You're lucky in love

So lucky, lucky, lucky

If you're lucky in love

- You're lucky

- Got your head in a whirl

- You're lucky

- If you got the right girl

You're oh, so lucky

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Up to now

I've been so lucky in love

Never was spurned

Never got burned
