Hey y'all uhm
Born Under a Bad Sign, I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all (Whoa, bad, bad so bad)
Hard luck and trouble is my only friend
I've been on my own, ever since I was ten
Born Under a Bad Sign, I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all (Whoa, bad, bad so bad)
I can't read, I never learned how to write
My whole life has been one big fight
Born Under a Bad Sign, I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all (Whoa, bad, bad so bad)
Listen, wine and men is all I crave
A big fine man is 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, I wouldn't have no kind of luck (Whoa)
If it wasn't for real bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all, no (Whoa)
Talking about bad luck, I've been having bad luck all of my days
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh y'all, I said bad luck
Alright now, I'm talkin', I'm talkin' about bad luck
Alright, come on y'all
I said yeah (Yeah), I said yeah (Yeah)
I said yeah (Yeah), I said yeah (Yeah)
I said yeah (Yeah), I said yeah (Yeah)
I said yeah (Yeah), I said it is bad luck
Oh yeah (Bad luck)
