BAD NEWS Lyrics

(Written by John D. Loudermilk)

(As performed by Johnny Cash)

Well, bad news travels like wildfire
Good news travel slow
They all call me Wildfire
'Cause everybody knows

(Chorus)
I'm bad, everywhere I go
Always gettin' in 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 the rope
And they had to let me go, 'cause

(Repeat Chorus)

Now from north to south, from east to west
The story is the same
From one state to another
I have to change my name, 'cause

(Repeat Chorus)

Now I picked peaches in Georgia
I lumberjacked in Maine
I've been hired, fired and jailed
In any town you can name, 'cause

(Repeat Chorus)

(As performed by Eddy Arnold)

Bad news travels like wildfire
Good news travels slow
They call my your WildfireCash Johnny - BAD NEWS - http://motolyrics.com/cash-johnny/bad-news-lyrics.html
'Cause everybody knows

That I'm bad news
Everywhere I go, whoa
Always gettin' into trouble
He he he he he hea
And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go

I've picked peaches down in Georgia
Lumberjacked up in Maine
I've been hired and jailed
In every state you can name

Because I'm bad news
Everywhere I go, whoa
Always gettin' into trouble
Ye he he he he he yeah
And leavin' little girls who hate to see me go

From north to south, from east to west
The story is the same
From one state to the other
I have to change my name

Because I'm bad news
Everywhere I go, whoa
Always a gettin' into trouble
Ha ha ha ha
And leavin' little girls who hate to see me go

Now they tried to hang me down in Oakland
And they did in San Frisco
But I wouldn't choke
And I broke their rope
They had to let me go

Because I'm bad news
Everywhere I go, whoa
Always gettin' into trouble
And leavin' little girls who hate to see me go
He he he he hea
