Born Under A Bad Sign

by Booker T. Jones / William Bell

Born under a bad sign

I been down since I begin to crawl

If it wasnt for bad luck,

I wouldnt have no luck at all

Hard luck and trouble is my only friend

I been on my own ever since I was ten

Born under a bad sign

I been down since I begin to crawl

If it wasnt for bad luck,

I wouldnt have no luck at all

I cant read, havent learned how to write

My whole life has been one big fight

Born under a bad sign

I been down since I begin to crawl

If it wasnt for bad luck,

I wouldnt have no luck at all

I aint lyin

If it wasnt for bad luck

I wouldnt have no kind-a luck

If it wasnt for real bad luck,

I wouldnt have no luck at all

Wine and women is all I crave

A big legged woman is

gonna carry me to my grave

Born under a bad sign

I been down since I begin to crawl

If it wasn't for bad luck,

I wouldnt have no luck at all

Yeah, my bad luck boy

Been havin bad luck all of my days, yes
