Lyrics:

I'm a hard luck case
My horse never comes around
I'm a hard luck case
My horse never comes around, oh no
When it does, I'm going to have my money down, alright

I'm a hard luck boy
My ship never comes to town
I'm a hard luck boy
My ship never comes to town, oh no
When it does, I just lay the gangplank down, lay it down

I'm a hard luck case
I get so tired of fallin' down, oh yea
I'm a hard luck case
I get so tired of fallin' down, alright
One of these days I know my luck will turn around
My hard luck will turn around
Got to turn around
Alright
