Born under a bad sign yeah
Been down since I began to crawl, alright yeah
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know, I wouldn't have no luck at all, alright yeah
Hard luck and trouble
Been my only friend
Been out on my own
Ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign, yeah
Been down since I began to crawl, alright alright
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know, I wouldn't have no luck at all
I can't read
Can't seem to write
My whole life has been just
One big fight
Born under a bad sign, yeah
Been down since I began to crawl, alright yeah
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no luck at all, alright yeah
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no kinda luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no luck at all, alright yeah
Hard luck and trouble
Been my only friend
Been out on my own
Ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign, yeah
Been down since I began to crawl, alright yeah
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know, I wouldn't have no luck at all, oh yeah
If it wasn't for bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no kinda luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
You know I wouldn't have no luck at all, oh, oh, oh, yeah
