Hard Luck Boy Lyrics - Georgia Satellites

Just a hard luck boy from a hard luck town 

Hard luck story that's goin' around 

You can make a fool wear a crown 

Prop him up but he falls back down, fall back down 

Every time I stick out my heart it just gets stepped on 

I don't want or need your gracious sympathy 

I don't need to look over my shoulder to see what's coming 

It's a dark cloud it belongs to me 

Hard luck boy from a hard luck town 

Hard luck story that's goin' around 

You can make a fool wear a crown 

Prop him up but he falls back down, fall back down 

Every time I roll the dice, they come out box cars 

It feels just like I've been snake bit since day one 

You gotta nerve to ask why I don't wear a smile on my face 

Well, it's hard when you're livin' under a gun 

Hard luck boy from a hard luck town 

Hard luck story that's goin' around 

You can make a fool wear a crown 

Prop him up but he falls back down, fall back down 

'Coz he fall back down, fall back down 

Hey, you, young boy 

Hard luck boy from a hard luck town 

Hard luck story that's goin' around 

You can make a fool wear a crown 

Prop him up but he falls back down 

Hard luck boy from a hard luck town 

Hard luck story that's goin' around 

You can make a fool wear a crown 

Prop him up but he falls back down, fall back down 

'Coz he fall back down, fall back down 

'Coz he fall back down, fall back down 

How much you, much you fall back down, fall back down? 

How much you fall back down, fall back down? 

How much you fall back down? 

How much you fall back down?
