Born under a bad sign
Been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no luck at all
Hard luck and trouble
Been my only friend I been out on my own
Ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign
Been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no luck at all
I can't read, I didn't learn how to write
My hwhole life has been
One long fight
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since
I began to crawl If it wasn't for bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no luck at all
You know if wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no kind of luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't havbe no luck at all
You know wine and women
Is all I crave
A big bad woman gonna carry me
To my grave Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl If it wasn't for bad luck I tell you I wouldn't have no luck at all
Yeah I'm a bad luck boy
Been having bad luck all of my days...
