The Paul Butterfield Blues Band Lyrics
"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

Bad luck and trouble
Been my only friends
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

I can't read and I can hardly even write
My whole life has been one big fight
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

Bad luck child...
If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all

Bad luck and trouble
Been my only friends
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

Well, now wine and women is all I crave
A big legged woman is gonna carry me to the grave
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all
Bad luck boy...

If it wasn't for bad luck, I mean real bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all
