Bad news travels like wildfire

Good news travels slow

I'm bad news

Everywhere I go

F

Always gettin' into trouble

F Bb

And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go

VERSE:

They tried to hang me in Oakland

And they did in Francisco

But I won't choke I broke the rope

And they had to let me go

CHORUS:

Cause I'm bad news

Everywhere I go

Always gettin' into trouble

And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go

VERSE:

Now from north to south

East to west the story is the same

From one state to another

I have to change me name

CHORUS:

Cause I'm bad news

Everywhere I go

Always gettin' into trouble

And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go

KEY CHANGE: C

VERSE:

Well now I picked peaches in Georgia

I lumberjacked in Maine

I've been hired fired and jailed

In any town you can name

CHORUS:

Cause I'm bad news

Everywhere I go

Always gettin' into trouble

And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go
