Born under a bad sign Been down since I began to crawl If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all If it wasn't for bad luck, you know I wouldn't have no luck at all Hard luck and trouble is my only friend I been on my own ever since I was

I know you better than you It's never more than I can take I wouldn't have it any other way Slip away in the night You find me holding my breath for you But you're not yourself 'Cause you will never slip away Come and suffer here You find me on my knees

Then come back to me I wouldn't want You to miss a thing I wouldn't wake You from any dream You ever have So, go on, and go, unroll every map But if you gotta leave You gotta know

Lovin' you ain't easy Nothin' ever is But I will keep on fightin' For a love like this You know I wouldn't have it Any other way Even when times get tough I don't want no easy love But she's still your girl

If you were there, beware The serpent soul pinchers Why leave her on her own? I wouldn't have said it if I would have known I don't know what it is that they want Three hundred and fifty no thank-yous, and nobody flinches Go on, girl, go on, give us

And it wouldn't cost me a dime You'll know it's me when I come through your town I'm gonna ride around in style I'm gonna drive everybody wild 'Cause I'll have the only one there is around. Well, I left Kentucky back in forty nine An' went to Detroit

I'd be appalled if I saw you ever try to be a saint I wouldn't fall for someone I thought couldn't misbehave But I want you to know that I've had no love like your love You know it is twelve o'clock in Soho, baby It's gin o'clock where I wake up, I don't
