Born Under a Bad Sign

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 friends
I've been 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 whole life has been one big fight

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

You know if it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no kind of luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

You know wine and women is all I crave
A big-legged woman gonna carry me to my grave

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
