Jerry Jeff Walker Bad News Lyrics

Come on, bad news
Well, bad news travels like wild fire
Good news travels slow
They all call me 'Wildfire' 'cause everybody knows

I'm bad news, everywhere I go
Always gettin' in a trouble
And leaving little girls
That hate to see me go

They tried to hang me in Oakland
And they did in Francisco
But I wouldn't choke, I broke their rope
And they had to let me go

Cause I'm bad news everywhere I go
Always gettin' in a trouble
And leaving little girls
That hate to see me go Now from north to southeast
To west the story is the same
From one state to another
I have to change my name

Cause I'm bad news everywhere I go
Always gettin' in a trouble
And leaving little girls
That sure hate to see me go

Well, now I've picked peaches in Georgia
I lumber jacked in Maine
I've been hired, fired and jailed
In any town you can name

Cause I'm bad news everywhere I go
Always gettin' in a trouble
And leaving little girls
That hate to see me go
