[Intro]
This is one called "Bad Luck and Troubles"
Seems like it follows me everywhere I go
[Instrumental]
I'm too old for the orphanage
Too young for the old folks' home
I've had bad luck and trouble
Ever since I've been grown
[Chorus]
What can I do?
Oh, people, what can I say?
Seem like bad luck and trouble
Is gon' follow me all my day
[Verse 1]
Now I'm having trouble
Everywhere I go
Now the trouble I'm having
The good Lord only knows
[Chorus]
What can I do?
Oh, what can I say?
Seem like bad luck and trouble
Is gon' follow me all my day
[Verse 2]
I went to the post office
To get my mail
The postman called the police
And had me throwed in jail
[Chorus]
Now I tell thee
What in the world, what in the world can I do?
Seem like bad luck and trouble
Lord, is gon' follow me all my day
[Instrumental]
The next day they took me to trial
Judge looked at me and frowned
He said, "You better get out of town
Before the sun go down"
[Chorus]
What can I do?
Tell me, what can I say?
Seem like bad luck and trouble
Gon' follow me all my day
