By booker t. jones and william bell
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's my only friend.
I've been down ever since i was ten.
Chorus
You know, wine and women is all i crave.
A big bad woman's gonna carry me to my grave.
Chorus
First verse
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.
If it wasn't for real bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all.
Born under a bad sign.
Born under a bad sign.
