(Now, see here, Mr. Smith or whatever your name may be.)
(You seem like a pretty nice guy, so I would like you to listen to me,)
(I don't want to butt into your business but I heard you complaining a lot,)
(Of a louse of a luck you have, and the good luck that others have got,)
(I say you're a little bit crazy, you have plenty of luck, my friend,)
(I think you should open your eyes, and discover your country again.)
Hey, you're a lucky fellow, Mr. Smith (Mr. Smith) to be able to live as you do,
And to have that swell Miss Liberty gal carrying the torch for you.
(You're a lucky fellow. Mr. Smith), look around you if you want to brag,
You should thank your lucky stars and I mean, thank all 50 in your flag.
(And you really got a family tree) with Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Lee,
(You're lucky to have ancestors like that),
you were born with a feather in your hat.
(You're a very very wealthy gent), I don't care if you haven't cent.
You can still have things your own way, on each election day.
If some poor suckers could choose, they like to be in your shoes,
,
You are a lucky fellow, Mr. Smith (Mr.Smith), to be able to swing like you do,
And to have that swell Miss Liberty gal carrying the torch for you
(You're a lucky fellow, Mr. Smith), look around you if you like to brag
You should thank your lucky stars and I mean, there are 50 in your flag.
(For you're rolling in a lot of wealth), your speech is free, yes siree, you got your health.
(So we got our health and tell me, why not?),
You should look at the great constitution that we got.
(You're a very very wealthy gent), I don't care if you haven't a cent.
You can still have things your own way, on each election day.
You're blushing red, white and blue, but buddy, that's alright too,
You're a fortunate fellow, (yes, a fortunate fellow),
And a privileged person (and a privileged person),
The lyrics YOU'RE A LUCKY FELLOW, MR. SMITH of FRANK SINATRA is also present in the album The complete reprise studio recordings - disk7 (1998)
Francis Albert Sinatra, noto semplicemente come Frank Sinatra, è stato uno dei più grandi interpreti della musica americana del XX secolo. Nato a Hoboken, New Jersey, nel 1915, Sinatra ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '30 con il gruppo di Harry James e successivamente con quello di Tommy Dorsey. Nel 1942 ha debuttato come solista con un contratto discografico con Columbia Records. La sua voce calda, potente e versatile, insieme al suo carisma magnetico, lo hanno reso uno dei cantanti più amati del mondo. Sinatra ha interpretato una vasta gamma di generi musicali, dal jazz al pop, passando per il swing e la musica leggera. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "My Way", "Fly Me to the Moon", "New York, New York" e "Strangers in the Night". Oltre alla musica, Sinatra ha recitato in numerosi film, ottenendo anche un premio Oscar nel 1954 per il suo ruolo in "From Here to Eternity".
