Bad News Lyrics - Singles - Jerry Jeff Walker

Yeah, well, I picked peaches in Georgia 

And I've lumber jacked in Maine 

Been hired and fired and been in jail 

In 'bout every state you can name 

Hell, I'm bad news, honey 

Bad news every place I go 

'Cause I'm always gettin' into trouble 

Leavin' them girls they sure, hate to see me go 

Now they say bad news is like wildfire 

'N good news comes too slow 

They all call me wildfire 'bout every place I go 

'Cause I'm bad news 

Seems like everywhere I go 

Hell, I'm always gettin' into trouble 

Leavin' them girls they sure hate to see the boy go 

Yeah, they tried to hang me in Oakland 

They tried it in San Francisco 

I wouldn't choke and I broke the rope 

They had to let me go 

'Cause I'm bad news, yeah 

Just about every place I go 

Hell, I'm always gettin' into trouble 

Leavin' them girls they sure, hate to see me go 

'Cause I'm bad news, babe 

'Cause I'm bad news, babe 

[Incomprehensible] bad news, babe 

I got news for you
