Hard Luck Child

Hard Luck Child - Skip James/Billy Murray

Written by：Skip James

I've been to the Indian Nation

And I've been to the territo'

I've been to the nation I've been to the territo'

And I'm a hard luck child

Catch the devil everywhere I go

You work out long old lonesome road

You work out holler long old lonesome road

I'm got to leave from here

Gotta catch the first train that blows

She used to be mine but look who got her now

She used to be mine but look who got her now

And he sure can't keep her

She don't mean him no good no now

Now I b'lieve to my soul my mama's bad luck child

I b'lieve to my soul my mama bad luck child

And if I wouldn't women would run me wild
