[Uh-Uh]

Wait A Minute, Jimmy, Look Here

As I Was Wakin' Up This Mornin'

Well Well

Oh Lord, You Know I Felt Pretty Good, Yes I Did

I Began To Stretch And Yawn

What For Ray?

Just To See If I Could

All At Once I Got A Funny Feelin'

That Something Around Here Was Goin On Wrong

Hmm

So You Know What I Did Jimmy?

What?

I Got Up And I Began To Look All Around For My Baby

Was That It?

That Was It, You Know The Woman Had Packed Up And Gone

Oh Lord



That's Why I Say If Everybody Went To Heaven

Hey-ey-ey, I Believe I'd Miss The Call

But You See If It Wasn't For Bad Luck,

Trying To Tell You Son If It Wasn't For Bad Luck, Now Now

Oh, Oh, I Wouldn't Have No Luck At All

Would You Believe I Wouldn't Have No Luck At All



Looka Here Ray, You Think Your Luck Is Bad?

Pawned My Last Suit To Make The Bet

Oh! Tell Ya I Got So Disgusted Now

Now That Seem Like The Right Thing To Do

But By The Time I Got Back To My Room

Are You Listenin' Ray?

Oh Ray, Listen, I Wouldn't Have No Luck At All

Huh-Yep. But Wait A Minute, You Ain't Heard Nothin' Yet

Let Me Tell You What Happened

Tell Me About It



I Decided I'd Go Out Walkin'

Say What?

Um-hm. And You Know Even That Failed

Now How Can A Walk Fail, Ray?

Because Some Man Snatched A Woman's Pocketbook Way Across Town

Say What?

Yeah, And Uh Guess Who They Put In Jail?

Do Tell, Do Tell



Jimmy, I Just Can't Understand It

I Know What You Mean

I Know There's Got To Be Some Kind Of Explanation

There's Got To Be, There's Got To Be

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord I Ain't Done Nothing Wrong

So Tell Me Why I'm Doing Two Years Probation

Man I Don't Know, I Got The Same Trouble



They Got Me Having To Walk A Chump Line

Say What?

Oh, With My, With My Back Up Against A Wall

That's Tough, Ray

That's Why If It Wasn't For Bad Luck Sugar

Oh I Tell Everybody If It Wasn't For Bad Luck Now Now

I Believe, I Believe I Would Have No Luck At All

I Just Would Have No Luck At All

Looka Here Ray, Let Me Tell You Something

Hm?

Now You Know, You Know About This Here

Yeah

You Know I Was Sittin' Home One Evening,

Well I Didn't Have A Thing To Do

Yeah, That's Happened To Me Sometimes

So I Thought I'd Go Out Dancin', You Know

Yeah, Yeah

And Do A Little Of That Boogaloo

I, I Kinda Like That Myself

Finally, I Got Myself A Partner, Now

Yeah

But Old Ray, Wouldn't You Know

Mm-hm, Somthing Musta Happened Bad

Some Man Said, "You Got My Woman, Boy"

Uh Oh

And He Stood About Seven Foot Four

Oops! Oops!

As They Walked Away I Stood There

Feeling Kinda Sad And Kinda Small

That's Why I Say If It Wasn't For Bad Luck Sugar



[whoa, If It Wasn't For Bad Luck, Y'all Now

Hey, Hey, Hey, We'd Have No Luck At All]



Hey Now!

Yeah, I Say We Would Have No Luck At All

Jimmy, I Want You To Tell Me About That

Seven Foot Four What Did You Do!

Well Ray, Anytime A Man Is Seven Foot Four And You

Messin' With His Woman, It's Time For You To Go

Oh Yeah?

Lord Have Mercy

I, I, I, I Can Understand It,

It Made You Feel Like You Wanna Holler A Little Bit

Made Me Feel Like I Wanna Aahhhhhhh-ow!

Yeah Man, When I Run Into That Situation,

Makes Me Wanna Cry A Little Bit Like This Ooh-hoo!
