If It Wasn’t For Bad Luck Ray Charles

(Uh-uh-uh)
Ayy, Jimmy (I'm listenin'), look here

As I was wakin' up this mornin'
Oh Lord (Yeah)
You know I felt pretty good (Really?), yes I did
I began to stretch and yawn (Well, what for Ray?)
Just to see if I could (I can dig it)
But all at once I got a funny feelin', yeah
That something around here was goin' on wrong
So you know what I did? (What?)
I got up and I began to look all around for my woman
Was that it? That was it
You know the girl had packed up and gone (Sound like some that happened to me)
I tell ya everybody went to heaven
Hey-hey-hey, Lord, I believe I'd miss the call
'Cause if it wasn't for bad luck, Jimmy
Woah, trying to tell you if it wasn't for bad luck, son
Hey-hey-hey, I wouldn't have no luck at all
No, no, no, I'd have no luck at all

Look here Ray, you think that's bad luck?
Listen what happen to me
Are you listenin'? I'm listenin'
Got a tip on a horse someone gave me, hey, hey
Pawned my last suit to make the bet (Uh-uh, no you didn't) Yes, I did
Put every dime I had on him, ah (What you said?)
You know he ain't showed up yet (I can believe that)
Tell ya I got so disgusted, yeah
Said I'd go back home and sleep some more
'Cause that was the right thing to do
But by the time I got back to my room (What happened?)
You know what?
My landlord had padlocked my door
Why that dirty...
Tell ya a slow horse and a fast woman
Hey, hey, hey, they sure did let me fall
That's why I say, if it wasn't for bad luck, tell 'em
Woah, if it wasn't for bad luck y'all
Hey, hey, hey, I'd have no luck at all
Oh, now, Ray, I wouldn't have no luck at all
