There′s something to be said for going out West
For girls just like Elizabeth
Big-boned and willing Betty doing her level best
And that's the best they surely can expect
Out West, she′s got the chance to shine
Head first with blinkers on her eyes

She's gonna be one of the lucky ones

Betty's in for company and Simon is the one
This fine upstanding mother′s son
He sees her as a likely target for his lust
And just to prove that it′s her lucky day
He stretches out his clammy hand
To grab the opportunity

She's gonna be one of the lucky ones
She′s gonna be one of the lucky ones
Life can be so much fun for a lucky one
Wrap her up in cellophane, take her away
A long long way away from home for the lucky ones
They're gonna be two of the lucky ones

Betty is a homespun lass, and
Simon can be devious, she
Cries as the proposal′s put, and
Holds him as the plans are passed, and
All in a rush
Simon does his stuff
He stretches out his clammy hand
Takes hers and sweeps her down the aisle

They're gonna be two of the lucky ones
Oh, there they go, ain′t they the lucky ones?
Life can be so much fun for the lucky ones
Wrap 'em up in cellophane, take 'em away
A long long way away from home for the lucky ones
But it′s a long long walk back home for the lucky ones
