Hard Luck Man Blues Lyrics

Roosevelt Sykes Hard Luck Man Blues

My babe my babe : she don't do no way to comfort me
She know that ain't no way : for a sweet little wife to
be

I'm in a worse fix now baby : than I ever been before
I'd rather be on the North Pole : living in the ice and
snow

Last time my baby quit me : I say I didn't no more want
her around
But every time I see her smiling face : my kind‑hearted
feeling come down

Love will make you do things : that you swear that you
would not do
You know if you ever been in love : what I'm say ain't
nothing strange to you

I'm a hard‑luck man : just as hard‑luck as I can be
If I didn't have good friends : I don't know what would
become of me
