Ha-ha-ha, come on bad news ha-ha-ha
Well, bad news travels like wildfire, good news travels slow
They call me Ol Wildfire, cause everybody knows
That Im bad news, everywhere I go
Always gettin in trouble
And leaving little girls that hate to see me go bad news
They tried to hang me down in Oakland and they did in Francisco
But I wouldnt choke, I broke their rope, they had to let me go
Cause Im bad news, everywhere I go bad news
Always gettin in trouble
And leaving little girls that hate to see me go go
Now from north to south, east to west the story is the same
From one state to another, I have to change my name
Cause Im bad news, everywhere I go bad news
Always gettin in trouble
And leaving little girls that hate to see me go
Well, now Ive picked peaches in Georgia, lumberjacked up in Maine
Ive been hired and fired and put in jail in any town you can name
Cause Im bad news, everywhere I go bad news
Always gettin in trouble
And leaving little girls that hate to see me go bad news
Say it baby!
