Dock Boggs - Hard Luck Blues lyrics

Me and my brother, Jim, went into a restaurant one night Through some other parties we got into a fight Shot all the way through me, they k**ed my brother Jim Shot all the way through me, they k**ed my brother Jim Hard luck, hard luck, placed me on the spot Jury said it wasn't me, my brother Jim got shot Well, my wife, she had a mouth big enough for both She got frightened in her sleep one night and a mouse ran down her throat Hard luck, hard luck, placed me on the spot Jury said it wasn't me, my brother Jim got shot Got me a cat and a piece of cheese, I placed it on her chin My wife got frightened in her sleep one night; she took rat, cat, and cheese all in Hard luck, hard luck, placed me on the spot Jury said it wasn't me, my brother Jim got shot
