The Simpsons - Born Under A Bad Sign lyrics

Your rating:

Been down since I began to crawl.
        If it wasn't for bad luck,
        You know, I wouldn't have no luck at all.

        Hard luck and trouble,
        Been my only friend.
        I been on my own,
        Ever since I was ten.

        Born under a bad sign,
        I been down since I began to crawl.
        If it wasn't for bad luck,
        You know, I wouldn't have no luck at all.

        I don't like to read,
        I can hardly write,
        My whole life has been
        One big fight.

        Born under a bad sign,
        I been down since I began to crawl.
        If it wasn't for bad luck,
        I said I wouldn't have no luck at all.
        And that ain't no lie.

(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 fear of falling
        Is all I crave.
        A big bag of pork rinds
        Gonna carry me to my grave.

        Born under a bad sign,
        I been down since I began to crawl.
        If it wasn't for bad luck,
        I tell ya I wouldn't have no luck at all.

        Good take boys, yeah.
        I think now that I'm a blues singer, I should have some kind of name.
        How 'bout Muddy Simpson.  No.  Big Homer.  T-Bone Homer.
        Blind Lemon Simpson.  Blind Lemon-lime Homer.  Blind Grapefruit Homer.
        Blind Strawberry Alarm Clock Homer.  No that's... they used that.
