Brownie Mcghee Born For Bad Luck
Boys I'm most done travellin', Lord I'm at my journey's
end
B'lieve I'm most done travellin', Lord at my journey's
end
Well I been lookin' for me a good partner, bad luck is my
best friend
Lord I was born for bad luck, bad luck is everything I
see
I was born for bad luck, bad luck is everything I see
Well I wonder why, bad luck keeps on follow me
There was thirteen children in my family, I was the last
one born
Thirteen children in our family, I was the last one born
I was born on bad luck Friday, lord on the thirtheenth
morn'
Play it Jim
Bad luck is just like my shadow, follow me everywhere I
go
Bad luck is just like my shadow, follow me everywhere I
go
Till they follow me one time, back to my best gal's door
