Same Shaker - David Wilcox

Good news, get here quick
I slip on a step 'bout to break my neck
I jump in the car and twist the key
I ain't got no battery

But turns out, saved my skin
No tellin' where I might have been
'Cause that was the road that washed away
So thank heaven I was late that day

Good luck, bad luck, think you know her
And you can't mistake her
The good and the bad luck
Salt and pepper in the same shaker

I got to get a new battery
So I take it back for the guarantee
And out the door, below the stairs
There's somebody with a gun down there

I drop the box, and turn to run
The battery lands on the guy with the gun
And the cameraman was there to see
So I'm a hero on TV

Good luck, bad luck, think you know her
And you can't mistake her
The good and the bad luck
Salt and pepper in the same shaker

Looking back on photographs
The inevitable came true
My late, great twist of fate
All roads lead to you

Love is a little bit like Lady Luck
Fate is slippery so we don't get stuck

Yeah, that Die Hard charging through the air
Must have hit that mugger square
Cupid's aim is good with love
And batteries from up above

Good luck, bad luck, think you know her
And you can't mistake her
The good and the bad luck
Salt and pepper in the same shaker

Good luck bad luck
The wild give and taker
The good and the bad luck
Salt and pepper in the same shaker

One's a liar, one's a faker
Salt and pepper in the same shaker
Good and the bad luck
Same shaker
