BAD LUCK
(Lee Hazlewood)


Sanford Clark - 1959



Standin' on the corner
Feelin' bad
Lookin' for the woman
That left me sad

Big black cat
Long black fur
Got my name carved
On the side of hers

Bad bad luck
Is back again
Looks like bad luck's
My only friend

Walkin' down Main Street
With a broken heart
Was a fool to love her
>From the start

Little green devil
With a neon tail
Sittin' on her shoulder
All ain't well

Bad bad luck
Is back again
Looks like bad luck's
My only friend

Sittin' on a park bench
With a troubled mind
Never had a good woman
I get the other kind

Cat on my left side
And Devil on the right
Heard someone say
He won't sleep tonight

Bad bad luck
Is back again
Looks like bad luck's
My only friend
