Born Under A Bad Sign
Born Under A Bad Sign performed by Koko Taylor
From the album Koko Taylor, Deluxe Edition
Born under a bad sign, I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn 't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
Hard luck and trouble is my only friend
Born under a bad sign, I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
(Buddy Guy)
Wine and women is all I crave
A big leg woman is gonna take me to my grave
Born under a bad sign, I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, people, I wouldn't have no luck at all
(Yeah, look-a here)
I can't read, didn't know how to write
My whole life is one big fight
Born under a bad sign, I've been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all
Hey, Buddy! Buddy Guy!
Hey, baby!
Can you play the blues?
Hey, baby!
Can you play the blues?
SOLO
Oh, bad luck, bad luck, follow me around
Sometime I'm up, sometime I'm down
Almost level with the ground, well!
Well! Uh hunh! Uh hunh! Whoo! Bad luck!
Talking about bad luck. I don't know if you hear me.
I don't know if you hear me
But if you hear me, let me hear you say it!
Shucks!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Talking about bad luck. Talking about bad luck.
I had it all my days. Oh!
