Unlucky Girl |
I went down to Blake Street |
To get a glass of gin |
Before I drank my gin |
The FBI walked in How unlucky |
How unlucky can a poor girl be Seem like everywhere I go FBI following me The start pouring out the bad liquor |
It were running down the street |
Instead of running down my throat |
It be running underneath my feet |
How unlucky |
How unlucky can a poor girl be Seem like everywhere I go Police is following me |
(Instrumental break) |
Whoa, oh leave me alone |
Oh, one more drink of gin will do it, baby |
I don’t mind going to jail |
But I didn’t taste my gin |
It seem like to me every time I want to drink |
Back to jail again |
Whoa |
How unlucky |
How unlucky can a poor girl be Seem like everywhere I go FBI following me Oh, get in there baby |
(Harp solo) |
Oh, make me feel it Make me feel it Pour another drink of that good liquor |
Ah, that’s what I’m talking about |
Look like to me the jail |
Gonna be my home |
When the police see me, |
Back to jail I go How unlucky |
How unlucky can a poor girl be I say seem like everywhere I go You know the FBI is following me The old folks told me drinking |
Was killing poor me But I told the old folks I cain’t help it Whiskey won’t let me be How unlucky |
How unlucky can a poor girl be I got to keep on drinking my gin |
But the FBI is following me Whoa yeah, whoa yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
