Rory Block - Hard Luck Child: A Tribute To Skip James

Hard Luck Child

I've been to the nation, and I've been to the territo'
I've been to the nation, I've been to the territo'
And I'm a hard-luck child, catch the devil everywhere I go

You got to travel a long and lonesome road
And you got to travel a long and lonesome road
I got to leave from here, gotta catch the first train that blows

Now, he used to be mine, but look who's got him now
Well, he used to be mine, but look who's got him now
And she can't keep him, 'cause she don't mean him no good no now

Now, I believe to my soul, I'm my mama's bad-luck child
I believe to my soul, I'm my mama's bad-luck child
And if I wouldn't be, this man would've run me wild

Hey hey hey hey
Hmm, I'm a hard-luck child
Said, that when I was born
I'm my mama's hard-luck child

I've been to the nation, and I've been to the territo'
I've been to the nation, and I've been to the territo'
I'm a hard-luck child, catch the devil everywhere I go

Hey hey hey hey
Said, I'm a hard-luck child
I catch the devil everywhere I go

Now, you got to travel a long and lonesome road
Now, you got to travel a long and lonesome road
I got to leave from here, I gotta catch the first train that blows
