Papa Charlie Jackson - Bad Luck Woman Blues lyrics

Did you ever have a bad luck woman on your trail? Did you ever have a bad luck woman on your trail? Always keeps you broke, always keeps you in jail I used to be happy, [as good Lord], all the time I used to be happy, [as good Lord], all the time but soon as I got this woman, [lost] all I can call mine My bad luck woman is a jinx and a worry too My bad luck woman is a jinx and a worry too I can't get rid of her no matter what I do I tried to make her quit me by callin' another woman's name I tried to make her quit me by callin' another woman's name She said, "That is all right, he loves me just the same." She keeps a ra't's foot in her hand at night when she goes to sleep She keeps a ra't's foot in her hand at night when she goes to sleep to keep [me with] her, so I won't make no midnight creep My bad luck woman keeps me feelin' blues My bad luck woman keeps me feelin' blues I can't get rid of her, she sticks to me like glue
