Bad News
Bad news travels like wildfireGood news travels slowThey call me old wildfire'Cause everybody knowsThat I'm bad newsEverywhere I goAlways getting into troubleAnd leaving little girls who hate to see me goI picked peaches down in GeorgiaLumber jacked up in MaineI've been hired and fired and jailedIn every state you can name'Cause I'm bad newsEverywhere I goAlways getting into troubleAnd leaving little girls who hate to see me goFrom north to southFrom east to westThe stories is the sameFrom one state to the otherI have to change my name'Cause I'm bad newsEverywhere I goAlways getting into troubleSongtexteAnd leaving little girls who hate to see me goNow they tried to hang me down in OaklandAnd they did in San FriscoBut I wouldn't choke And I broke their ropeAnd they had to let me go'Cause I'm bad newsEverywhere I goAlways getting into troubleAnd leaving little girls who hate to see me goBad newsOh talkin' bad newsBad newsTalkin' about bad news Aus Songtexte Mania
