Bad Luck Lyrics - Teddy Pendergrass

Well, well 

Look down-hearted and confused 

Because lately you've been startin' to lose 

Losin' out on everything, you might try to do 

Bad luck's there, it's got a hold on you 

Don't send you money, 'bout to lose your home 

Done lose your woman and everything you own 

Love always plainly states that chances go around 

But if you wanna know the truth about it 

And tell you what's pullin' you down, yeah

You got bad luck 

That's what you got, that's what you got 

(Yes, uh) 

Bad luck 

That's what you got, that's what you got 

Bad luck 

That's what you got, that's what you got 

You got bad luck, bad luck 

Played a number 'cause that number's hot 

But the bookers gets you for every cent you've got 

Walk around in a daze with your pockets bare 

Got to see your woman and she ain't even there 

Don't seem to give a whiz about it and all your trapped in time 

The more I think about it, I think you're 'bout to lose your mind 

Some people call it jinxed, some say it ain't my day, huh 

But if you wanna know the truth about it 

And tell you what's pullin' you way down

Love always plainly states that chances go around 

But if you wanna know the truth about it 

And tell you what's pullin' you down

People in the world out there 

I know none y'all satisfied, satisfied 

The way crisis has been goin' on, oh, babe 

I better say I'm just mad about mornin' paper, yeah 

They cut down on smokin', we have to cut down on dreamin' 

'Cause early one morning I got me a paper, huh 

I sat down on my living room floor 

Opened it up opened it up, guess, what I saw, huh? 

Saw the President of the United States 

The man said he was gonna give it up 

He's giving us high hopes 

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

They say they got another man to take his place 

But I don't think they need to satisfy the human race 

Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck 

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey 

The only the thing that I got that I can hold on 

Is my God, huh, my God, huh 

Jesus be with me, Jesus 

Give me good luck, good luck 

Help me Jesus, huh, everybody needs
