Born Under a Bad Sign

Money don't just happen 
 She said la la la 
 Carefree walking down the avenue 
 The thing is don't you know 
 You need a little to get going? 
 And you ain't got a little now, do you? 

 Let's talk about times 
 About hard times when you done wrong 
 Yes. I know the once 
 When somebody gives you a break 
 Boy. You better get going 
 Hesitate and it's gone 

 What I got is gonna help me get what's mine 
 Born under a badly busted sign 
 Lack of luck and poverty combined 
 Born under a badly busted sign 

 One look was all it took 
 She had me pinned down, figured out 
 In retrospect, it ain't that hard to tell 
 I was taught just how to steal 
 I was taught just when to lie 
 I set out, and it worked pretty well 

 Let's talk about times, 
 About hard times when you done wrong 
 Yes. I know the once 
 When somebody gives you a break 
 Boy. You better get going 
 Hesitate and it's gone 

 What I got is gonna help me get what's mine 
 Born under a badly busted sign 
 Lack of luck and poverty combined
