Hutch - Opportunity Knocks [SHADOW]

from SpinTunes 20 Round 1 by Spintunes

/

lyrics

I bought a vintage Gibson:
Fifty eight or nine.
'Cause I'm a fine musician
And I wanna shine.
I gave it an audition,
But the sound, it was a crime!

- CHORUS -
Opportunity knocks but once,
But knocks come twice and again.
This gives me the awful hunch:
They'll keep knockin' us 'til the end

I knew a pretty little girl
I knew her well, I swore
I went to see my Cindy.
She met me at the door.
I thought I had a chance with her,
Now she won't see me no more.

- CHORUS -
- BREAK -

- BRIDGE -
Opportunity: Some times yer hot!
Opportunity: Most times yer not!

I's play'n' a game of craps one night.
Six was my point to make.
The pot was huge; the time was right.
I gave the dice a shake.
I rolled that six but to my surprise,
There was a huge earthquake!

- CHORUS -
- CHORUS -
