Born Loser
Performed by Lil′ Ed & The Blues Imperials

I guess it's in my genes, black cats, unlucky thirteen (2x)
I walk under ladders if you know what I mean

I live on the edge; I walk on the wild side (2x)
The dangerous side of me I cannot hide

Opportunity knocked, but the door was locked
It′s the life I choose, I was born to lose


I wash with gasoline and then I play with fire (2x)
Making sparks fly is my only desire
I don't play the lotto; Murphy's Law is my motto (2x)
It′s a bitter pill; if it can go wrong, it will

Opportunity knocked, but the door was locked
It′s the life I choose, I was born to lose
Opportunity knocked, but the door was locked
It's the life I choose, I was born to lose

(I just lose all the time, y′all. I don't know what the problem is
Bad luck is at my back door. I hear it knocking, there it goes.
I ain′t going to let it in)
