Born un der a bad sign;

been down since I be gan to crawl.

Oh, if it was n’t for (D)bad luck,

I would n’t (Am)have no luck at all.

(Bm7)(Let me tell you.)

Hard luck and trou ble er is my on ly friend.

Been on my own an ev er since I was ten.

Born un der a bad sign;

Oh, if it was n’t for (D)bad luck,

I can’t read; I nev is learned how on to write.

My whole head life an has been one big my fight.

Born un der a bad sign;

been down since I be gan to crawl.

Oh, if it was n’t for (D)bad luck,

I would n’t (Am)have no luck at all.
