Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Kenny Loggins was born in Everett, WA, and moved to Los Angeles in his teens. He got a job as a staff writer and wrote four songs used on a Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album in 1970, among them the hit "House at Pooh Corner." This brought him to the attention of former Poco member Jim Messina, now a staff producer at CBS, who intended to produce Loggins' debut album. The two ended up in a duo, however, and Loggins & Messina made a series of successful albums during the '70s. Loggins & Messina broke up in 1976, and Loggins went on to solo stardom with such million-selling albums as Celebrate Me Home, Nightwatch (which included the hit "Whenever I Call You Friend"), and Keep the Fire, all in the cheerful, sensitive style he had displayed in Loggins & Messina. Loggins also became known as the king of the movie soundtrack song, scoring Top Ten hits with "I'm Alright" (from Caddyshack), "Footloose" (from Footloose), "Danger Zone" (from Top Gun), and "Nobody's Fool" (from Caddyshack II).

Lady Luck Lyrics
Kenny Loggins
Seven-eleven he rolled,
And all his life was a golden gamble.
Youd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.
Something supernatural, a charlatan, a mastermind,
Or some lucky ladys design.
Oh, what the devil, its fun,
His lady luck was his one companion,
And by the silver and gold,
His heart had been bought and bound.
But he chanced to fall in new love,
He kissed her and he cut the tie,
And kissed his lucky lady goodbye.
Oh, spin your wheel of fortune.
Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.
Are you with me in love,
Like youve been with me in life?
If I leave you for a lover,
Would you leave me far behind?
You shouldve known from the start,
Shed take no part in a love triangle.
You have to be hers alone,
And go it on your own.
cause if youve found a new love,
Lady luck is gonna step aside.
So kiss your lucky lady goodbye.
(instrumental)
Spin your wheel of fortune.
Shuffle the cards, blow on the dice.
Are you with me in love,
Like youve been with me in life?
If I leave you for an hour,
Would you leave me far behind?
Seven-eleven he rolled,
And all his life was a golden gamble.
Youd see him reeling it in when the odds were high.
Something supernatural, a charlatan, was a mastermind,
Or some lucky ladys,
Or some jealous lady,
Kiss your lucky lady goodbye.
Dont pass this way again, goodbye.
Dont pass this way again, goodbye.
(repeat to fade)
