Bad News
Bad news travels like wild fire good news travels slow
And they all call me Wildfire cause everybody knows
That I'm bad news everywhere I go
And always gettin' in trouble and leavin' little girls that hate to see me go
I've picked peaches down in Georgia I lumberjacked in Maine
I've been hired and jailed in any state you can name
Cause I'm bad news everywhere that I go
And always gettin' in trouble and leavin' little girls that hate to see me go
From north to south from east to west Lord the story is the same
From one state to the other I have to change my name
Cause I'm bad news everywhere taht I go
And always gettin' in trouble and leavin' little girls that hate to see me go
[ dobro ]
Now they tried to hang me in Oakland and they did in Francisco
But I wouldn't choke and I broke their rope and they has to let me go
Cause I'm bad news everywhere I go
And always gettin' in trouble and leavin' little girls that hate to see me go
Yeah now bad news travels like wild fire I said good news travels slow
And they all call me ol' Wildfire cause everybody knows
That I'm bad news everywhere I go
And always gettin' in trouble and leavin' little girls that hate to see me go
Yeah here comes bad news he's back in town ha ha ha
