Song by Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes<br /><br>

Uh<br>

Woo<br>

Well, well<br>

<br>

Look down-hearted and confused<br>

Because lately you’ve been startin'to lose<br>

Losin'out on everything you might try to do<br>

Bad luck’s there, it’s got a hold on you<br>

<br>

Don’t send you money, ‘bout to lose your home<br>

Done lost your woman and everything’s wrong<br>

Love always plainly states that chances go around<br>

But if you wanna know the truth about it and tell you what’s pullin'you down, yeah<br>

<br>

(You got) Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (Yes, uh)<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (You got)<br>

Bad luck, bad luck (Bad)<br>

<br>

Played a number ‘cause that number’s hot<br>

But the bookers gets you for every cent you’ve got<br>

Walk around in a daze with the richer pockets bare<br>

Got to see your woman and she ain’t even there<br>

<br>

Don’t seem to give a whiz about it and all your trapped in time<br>

The more I think about it, I think you’re ‘bout to lose your mind<br>

Some people call it jinxed, some say it ain’t my day, huh<br>

But if you wanna know the truth about it and tell you what’s pullin'you way down<br>

<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (Yes, uh)<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (You got)<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (You got)<br>

Bad luck, bad luck (Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad)<br>

<br>

One long week<br>

Ooh, huh<br>

Yeah, yeah<br>

One more thing<br>

<br>

Love always plainly states that chances go around<br>

But if you wanna know the truth about it and tell you what’s pullin'you down<br>

Down, down, down, down, down<br>

<br>

Bad luck (Yes, uh)<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (You got)<br>

Bad luck (Oh…yeah)<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (You got)<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (You got)<br>

Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck, bad luck<br>

<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck, bad luck<br>

<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck, bad luck (I can’t get away from this bad luck)<br>

<br>

Huh<br>

Bad luck<br>

Bad, bad<br>

I want to get away but I can’t keep myself<br>

‘Cause I got bad luck<br>

Huh, bad luck, y’all<br>

Children sing with me, "Bad luck"<br>

Everybody’s got bad luck, bad luck, bad luck<br>

<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck, bad luck<br>

<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (Mmm...mmm...)<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got<br>

Bad luck<br>

That’s what you got, that’s what you got (Hey)<br>

Bad luck (Yeah), bad luck, bad luck (Come on), bad luck (Come on)<br>

<br>

Ga-ga, woo<br>

People in the world out there<br>

I know none-a y’all satisfied, satisfied<br>

The way crisis has been goin?on, oh, babe<br>

I better say I’m just mad about mornin?paper, yeah<br>

They cut down on smokin?[Cut down on smokin’]<br>

We have to cut down on dreamin?[Cut down on dreamin’]<br>

‘Cause early one morning I got me a paper, huh<br>

I sat down on my living room floor<br>

Opened it up [Opened it up], opened it up [Opened it up]<br>

Guess, what I saw, huh?<br>

Saw the President of the United States, huh<br>

The man said he was gonna give it up<br>

He’s giving us high hopes<br>

But he still turned around and left all us poor folks behind<br>

They say they got another man to take his place<br>

But I don’t think they need to satisfy the human race<br>

Bad luck, huh<br>

Bad luck, bad luck, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey<br>

The only the thing that I got that I can hold on<br>

Is my God, huh, my God, huh<br>

Jesus be with me, Jesus<br>

Give me good luck, huh, good luck<br>

Help me Jesus, huh<br>

Everybody needs <br>

<br>
