Misfortune, oh misfortune, you're haunting me Everywhere I turn you I see For a long time, good fortune, she was mine The seeds they did pop, the woods they did divide Gracious days, I did live Now I drink the bitter wine and try not to cry I call to thunder, I call to rain To wash away unhappy days Misfortune, oh misfortune, you're haunting me Everywhere I turn you I see Oh no, save me Worry has become a friend On whom I can rely I drink, I was in the crowd Dumb skin upon my bones I was all alone I call to thunder, I call to rain To wash away unhappy days Misfortune, oh misfortune, you're haunting me Everywhere I turn you I see Misfortune, oh misfortune, how much can my heart take of thee Misfortune, oh misfortune, you're haunting me
