[Verse 1]
He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
[Chorus]
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
[Verse 2]
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid

Ooh, what a lucky man, he was
Ooh, what a lucky man, he was

[Verse 1]
Call out the instigators
Because there's something in the air
We got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here
And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Lock up the streets and houses
Because there's something in the air
We got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here,
And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
Hand out the arms and ammo
We're gonna blast our way through here
We got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here
And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now
