Son Seals - Buzzard Luck lyrics

I was born on the 13th hour born on the 13th day Bad luck and trouble are all that come my way I should be flying over that desert just like that long neck bird trying to find something I can make a ummmm I'm so tired, I could cry I can't k** nothin' boy and won't nothing die I came to the city long before my time trying to make my fortune eat well wine and dine But boy when I got here it went the other way I slept in the park all night Y'all and walked the streets all day (chorus) Bad ol' buzzard has got me I feel like I could cry I can't k** nothin' boy and won't nothing die I went down to the welfare to try and get some help They said no boy we're sorry we don't have enough for ourself well they threw me out of the office and told me to go away come back and try your luck boy some other day (repeat chours) (spoken) Oh look at the mess I got myself into now been fooling around this old town for three long months in a row and ain't been having nothing but buzzard luck I can't k** nothing and won't nothin' die I done got down to my last twenty cents I don't know what to do with this whether I should try to make a phone call home or go on and keep this and see if I can build it up I tell ya' Look at my shoes they done fell apart and my socks are hangin' out I don't know what to do I think maybe I'll go down on 43rd street see if I can look up my friends Buddy Guy and Junior Wells Maybe I'll get a little hand out huh? But on the other hand before I do I feel like playin' the blues before I go Is that alright?
