Old 97's - Bad Luck Charm lyrics

k** the bottle and build a fire Watch the flames lick the telephone wire You knew I was trouble from the start Know-it-all, yeah, you should have known better Baby I'm bad right down to the letter You spent too much time gambling with your heart If you cross your fingers You can hang me on your arm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm You were looking for love last night I was looking for a light I never am where I'm supposed to be You might think I'm a hell of a catch But lightin' my fire's like three on a match It's between the devil and you and me If you cross your fingers You can hang me on your arm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm Could you please believe I didn't mean to do no harm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm If you cross your fingers You can hang me on your arm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm How'd I end up tangled in your feet? When I'm just another black cat Crossing your street If you cross your fingers You can hang me on your arm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm Could you please believe I didn't mean to do no harm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm Baby, I'm a bad luck charm
