lyrics

me and my bad luck just hit town today
down the road so many times nothing left to say
kick me out the doorway leave me in the rain
always in my business but i never knew his name
tells me i'm his only boy but it ain't the same
as a hook to hang my hat or a place to put the blame

me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck coming 'round
me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck coming 'round

someone's doing dishes in a dirty dining car
someone's making wishes on a thirty cent cigar
someone's standing in the rain wishing on a star
someone somewhere wants to know where all the people are
bad luck reassuring me he never will be far
i can't find him in the morning when he's hidden my guitar

me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck come around
me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck coming 'round

me and my bad luck we been on a roll
lost all our muscle washed up on the shoals
getting so i wonder just who is in control
who will pay the ticket who will pay the toll
bad luck disappears on me falls into a hole
every time i get the bill he takes it on a stroll

me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck come around
me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck coming 'round

i'm gonna take him by the collar put his hat upon his head
throw him in the river till i'm sure that he is dead
put a bullet in his eye and fill him full of lead
lace his boots up tight put him in his dying bed
will i say a prayer for him or do a dance instead
i must remember to forget the things my bad luck said

me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck come around
me and my bad luck
me and my bad luck coming 'round
