Well I crawled to confession early today They took just one look and they turned me away I'll enlighten my spirits in some other way But why tell me God do things happen this way
My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse
My dog's gone astray and my cat doesn't mouse My neighbor is hung in a tree by his house My tires have been slashed and my battery's flat Well please tell me why, tell me what's up with that?
My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse Yes my luck is so bad it can only get better than worse
Got a call from my wife who's just filed for divorce She's taking the cash, the house, and my horse And the government says I owe lots of back tax Now tell me how can it get worse than that
My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse Yes my luck is so bad it can only get better than worse
Why is my luck so bad? I'll blame my heavenly dad And I hope to some day sallyforth from this muck Till that day I shall pray for complete change of luck
My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse
Now my shoes are all tattered, I've trudged a long mile I've stepped in a puddle and I've fell in the pile I want to lash out but I'm just gonna smile While I wait for my luck to be changed in a while
My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse Yes my luck is so bad it can only get better than worse My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse My luck is so bad it can only get better than worse
