I bet big on a small hand and I
Lost big on a small table
Thought it was a sure thing but
My body weren’t quite able
To shake off those mean looks
Burnin’ holes in the cards from across the table
And I know I aint the savior
But I got men lookin’ for me in stables
Well I came and went then I played and lost
Then I ran and hid and its funny cause
I knocked on wood and knocked a mirror off the wall
I flipped a switch and saw a black cat runnin’ down the hall
I pick four leaf clovers under ladders that are sure to fall
Stepped on a crack and broke the
Back of the horse that I rode in on
But that’s alright
It aint that strange
Cause my luck’s like my money, honey I’m makin’ change
I got houses under bridges
I take showers in the ditches
I got footprints on the railroads
To the boxcars for provisions
I got holes in all my socks
Its my idea of stylish
The irony of my plight is
Mama told me I was Irish
Well I came and went
I played and lost
I ran and hid
And its funny cause
I knocked on wood and knocked a mirror off the wall
I flipped a switch and saw a black cat runnin’ down the hall
I pick four leaf clovers under ladders that are sure to fall
I stepped on a crack and broke the
Back of the horse that I rode in on
But that’s alright
It aint that strange
Cause my luck’s like my money, honey I’m makin’ change
