Born Under A Bad Sign

William Bell, Booker T. Jones

[Chorus]
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I began to crawl
Oh, if it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

[Verse 1]
Hard luck and trouble is my only friend
I been on my own since I was ten

[Chorus]
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I began to crawl
Oh, if it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

[Verse 2]
I can't read, didn't learn how to write
My whole life has been one big fight

[Chorus]
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I began to crawl
Oh, if it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Wine and women is all I crave
A big legged woman's gonna carry me to my grave

[Chorus]
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I began to crawl
Oh, if it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

[Outro]
I wouldn't have no luck at all
I been down
I been down so long
Down don't bother me no more
Oh, yeah
