Born Under a Bad Sign
Albert King


Born under a bad sign
Been down since I began to crawl
If it wasnÕt for bad luck
You know I wouldnÕt have no luck at all

Hard luck and trouble been my only friends
IÕve been on my own ever since I was ten

Born under a bad sign...

I can't read.  I didn't learn how to write
My whole life has been one big fight

Born under a bad sign...

[guitar solo]

You know if it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no kind of luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck
I wouldn't have no luck at all

You know wine and women is all I crave
A big-legged woman gonna carry me to my grave

Born under a bad sign...

[ad lib & guitar solo to fade]
