mm-hm, somthing musta happened bad
some man said, “you got my woman, boy”
uh oh
and he stood about seven foot four
oops! oops!
as they walked away i stood there
feeling kinda sad and kinda small

that’s why i say
if it wasn’t for bad luck sugar
[whoa, if it wasn’t for bad luck, y’all now
hey, hey, hey, we’d have no luck at all]

hey now
yeah, i say we would have no luck at all
jimmy, i want you to tell me about that seven foot four
what did you do!
well ray, anytime a man is seven foot four
and you messin’ with his woman, it’s time for you to go
oh yeah?
lord have mercy
i, i, i, i can understand it, it made you feel like you wanna holler a little bit
made me feel like i wanna
aahhhhhhh-ow!

bit like this
