"How Come" lyrics

"How Come"

How come when I got the ace of hearts
You always draw the ace of spades?
How's it when your best friend
Brings you lilies on your birthday?

How come, yeah, how come?
Well, I ain't superstitious, but well, these things I've seen
How come, how come
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me

How come when the local clergy calls
He tells me that you shouldn't wear black?
What kind of bread are you gonna bake
With that hemlock in your spice rack?

How come, yeah, how come?
Well, I ain't superstitious, but well, these things I've seen
How come, yeah, how come?
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me, yeah

The spider's run, the cobweb's gone
Did you eat it when the moon was new?
I drowned your cat, what do you say about that?
I've even broken up your broom

How come, yeah, how come?
Well, I ain't superstitious now, but well, these things I've seen
How come, yeah, how come?
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me

How come, yeah, how come?
Well, I ain't superstitious now, but well, these things I've seen
How come, yeah, how come?
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me

How come, yeah, how come?
I ain't superstitious, but these things I've seen
How come, how come?
I ain't a superstitious fella, but it worries me
