I'm a bad luck woman I can't see the reason why.
Well the next man I got, you know he worked very hard
Just as soon as I got him he lost his doggone job.
Well the next man I got he was a railroad man
Just as soon as I got him everything hurt his doggone hands.
Well the next man I got he was long and tall
Everytime I look around he was kickin' at someone other man's call.
Well the next man I got he was short and fat
I couldn't keep him because he wasn't tight like that.
Well the next man I got he was a sandhawk in the sea
I had him two days and he got drowned away from me.
The next man I got bought me a hat an' a dress
Everytime I looked round he put his hat on a doggone rest.
