lyrics

As I go my merry little way
I know that I try
To do the right things for you and me
Because I’m that kind of guy
But it seems to me
If it should be
Something, almost ,always, always, goes wrong

So just blame me number 13
For I’m just bad luck
No matter how hard I try
I still mess up!
I could screw up a one car funeral
Or like, when I smashed up our pick-up truck
It was me that forgot your birthday
Because I got drunk
It seems to me
That no matter what I do
They call me 13.

I never won a bet
I was always late
I remember when we first kissed
I tripped on my own two feet
Yet you stayed with me
Through all eternity
No matter what I do
I will always love you
This is from your love
Number 13.
