Songs: Ohia - The Old Black Hen lyrics

Old Black Hen, is that you again? Singing the Bad Luck Lullaby Come right on in, it's midnight again Time for the Bad Luck Lullaby You know the one It's the same one you sung When you wrote down the Revelations Now sing it over the cradle of the child who's born next Bad Luck Lullaby Leave all the truth in so they know what comes next With the Bad Luck Lullaby Leave in the true love they never find Show how we're looking for it all of our lives When I saw the banner hanging over my door And heard the Bad Luck Lullaby I already knew who the party was for Bad Luck Lullaby All of my pain found a partner in that room And the devil's tail swayed with the tune Make that Black Record roll the tapes all night long Bad Luck Lullaby Make that Black Record and we'll all sing along To the Bad Luck Lullaby Look down the long street And see who's that crying Tell them that every day I lived I was trying to sing the blues the way I find them
