Bad Luck - Original - Dinah Washington

I’m used to misfortune, baby

Used to the bitter end

I’m used to trial and troubles

'Cause I never had a friend--bad luck

Well, well, bad luck

Well, I’m used to trial and troubles

Bad luck don’t bother me

I’m used to takin' beatings

Used to being alone

Used to be mistreated

With nobody to call my own--bad luck

Lord, lord, lord, lord, bad luck

Yes, I’m used to being mistreated

Bad luck don’t bother me

I’m used to being broke

Used to being sad

I’m used to lousy people

And I’m used to being mad

A bad luck, yeah, yeah, yeah, bad luck

Oh, bad luck and lousy people

No, no, no, they don’t bother me

I’ve been takin' for a fool

Been takin' for a square

Been used for a tool

And I’ve been told that I’m nowhere

Bad luck, oh, oh, bad luck, yeah, yeah, bad luck, bad luck

No, no, it don’t bother me

Right now I’m just a cool little fool

And bad luck don’t bother me
