Born Under a Bad Sign
(Bell/Jones)
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
I would not have no luck at all
Bad luck and trouble's been my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
I would not have no luck at all
Well wine and women's all I crave
A big legged woman's gonna carry me to my grave
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
I would not have no luck at all
