It's slang for 'leccy', so electricity. In other words, you can plug her in.

Well, Francis tried it for a short while, but because of his demands he's plugging her back in.

I think the song is inspired by Arthurian legend & the Lakky Lady in question is just a colloquialised title for the Lady of the Lake with the song commenting on how she had let herself go somewhat in the years subsequent to handing Excalibur to Arthur.

Sounds like the way a person from the east end of London would say "lucky".....that's what I've always taken it to mean. Not true mate other wise you'd hear "Good lack treacle" on Eastenders which uses the cockerney cretins phrasebook for scripts.

"Now she is so lazy how she moves I'll never know, she was so different 11 years ago, but I love her and I need that woman so" "She is big but lazy but I want you all to know that I love her." I think LAKKY might mean LAZY.

Hey Gaz (Canberra) you know a lot about Australian music history.
Do you remember if KEVIN BORICH did a cover of LAKKY LADY back in the 70's?
I've got a nagging feeling that he did.

Ah well, I've got a woman and I love, love her so She is big, fat and lazy but I want you all to know That I love her and I need that woman so She is my little lady and I'm glad that you all know When she wakes in the morning and her figure tells no lies My eyesight is broken when the light shines on her tights But I love her and I need that woman so Oh how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go And I love her and I need that woman so Oh well how can I tell you what I'd do if she should go

I'm sorry, to most of you this is probably a stupid question... what's the meaning of lakky? Glad you posted that. I've also wondered. And yeah, it is quite obvious if you listen to the words, but with Quo songs, I tend not to!

On the other hand...compared with the lyrics that some other bands write at times, even the questionable lyrics of some quo songs seem very mild

Especially in the last couple of decades.
