Thirteen Lyrics - American Recordings - Johnny Cash

Bad luck wind been blowing at my back 

I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at 

Got the number thirteen tattooed on my neck 

When the ink starts to itch, then the black will turn to red 

I was born in the soul of misery 

Never had me a name 

They just gave me the number when I was young 

Got a long line of heartache 

I carry it well 

The list of lives I've broken reach from here to hell 

Bad luck wind been blowing at my back 

I pray you don't look at me, I pray I don't look back 

I was born in the soul of misery 

Never had me a name 

They just gave me the number when I was young
