Lyrics Beginner's Luck - Ella Fitzgerald

At any gambling casino
From monte carlo to reno
They tell you that a beginner
Comes out a winner

Beginner fishing for flounder
Will catch a 17 pounder
That? s what I always heard
And thought absurd,
But now, I believe every word

For I? ve got beginner? s luck
The first time that I? m in love
I? m in love with you
Gosh, I? m lucky

I? ve got beginner? s luck
There never was such a smile
Or such eyes of blue
Gosh, I? m fortunate

The thing we? ve begun
Is much more than a pastime
For this time is the one
Where the first time is the last time

I? ve got beginner? s luck
Lucky, through and through
Cause the first time that I? m in love
I? m in love with you

(bridge)

The thing we? ve begun
Is much more than a pastime
For this time is the one
Where the first time is the last time

I? ve got beginner? s luck
Lucky, through and through
Cause the first time that I? m in love
Yes, the first time that I? m in love
Oh, the first time that I? m in love
I? m in love with you
I? m in love with you
I? m in love with you
I? m in love with you
