Nickel In The Well Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I got a four leaf clover
Hung a horseshoe on the wall
Threw salt over my left shoulder
I'll try anything at all
To get lucky with you
I want you so much
Until you want me too
I ain't gonna give up

I'll throw another nickel in the well
Tell myself this time maybe it'll help
To make my dreams come true
I'll make another wish upon a star
Just in case you're out in your backyard
Lookin' up there too
With a lot of love and a little luck
You'll fall like I fell
I'll just cross my fingers
And throw another nickel in the well

If I could get Houdini
To teach me a trick or two
Then maybe you would see me
In the way I want you to
I'm gonna knock on wood
It ain't been easy
I've done everything I could
To make you need me
