We were in Victoria
When we heard news so horrible
Our old van she got so sick
So sick that she could not be fixed
Bad luck
So we made a call or two
But everyone done left us blue
Til an old friend stepped in line
And said Ill help you, youll be fine
We got lucky
Just when things were going so bad bad bad
Just when sorrow made us feel so so sad
Ooooh we got lucky
Found a van so shiny clean
Played some gigs and hit the scene
Til we got to Kaslo town
And found the bar done been closed down
Bad luck
So we played there in the street
In just an hour came up neat
Took our ship on up to Nelson
Found a gig, and then we got some
We got lucky
Just when things were going so bad bad bad
Just when sorrow made us feel so so sad
Ooooh we got lucky
St. Albert's spirit cast a spell
Left the poor boys feelin' like hell
By Saskatoon, Jay's leg was limp
By Regina, he was a full-on gimp
Bad luck
Just when blood was startin to boil
We hit Red-town and struck some oil
Got treated to a killer night
That ended with the Northern lights
We got lucky
Just when things were going so bad bad bad
Just when sorrow made us feel so so sad
Ooooh we got lucky
Jason was in need of love
He was prayin' to the Lord above
Try he might all over town
Everyone would shut him down
Bad luck
Hog leg down to Brandon Town,
Jason's luck turned right around
Had his choice of plenty of women
But none of them sweet enough for his sweet puddin'
We got lucky
Just when things were going so bad bad bad
Just when sorrow made us feel so so sad
Ooooh we got lucky
