Old 97s - Four Leaf Clover lyrics

I got a four leaf clover.

It ain't done one single lick of good.

I'm still a drunk and I'm still a loser.

I'm living in a lousy neighborhood.

I got a real live horseshoe,

And I hung it upside-down above my door.

But it don't do nothing to impress you,

So I don't know what the hell it's for.

Why don't you come over? I'll show you my four leaf clover.

Who'm I trying to kid? I'm not the kind of guy you'd go

for.

I got a four leaf clover, but I ain't got no hope of

getting you.

I got a lucky silver dollar.

My granddad gave it to me now he's dead.

At times like this I wish that I cound join him,

It might just stop this pounding in my head.

Why don't you come over? I'll show you my four leaf clover.

Who'm I trying to kid? I'm not the kind of guy you'd go

for.

I got a four leaf clover, but I ain't got no hope of

getting you.

I ain't got no hope of getting you.
