Bad News Boxcar Willie
Well bad news tr[C]avels like wild fire
Good news travels slow
And they call me old wild fire everywhere I [C7]go
Lord I'm [F]bad news everybody [C]knows
[G7]Always gettin' into trouble
And [F]leaving little girls
That hate to see me [C]go
NC
Well I've picked peaches down in Georgia
I lumber jacked up in Maine
And I've been hired and fired and jailed
In every state you can [C7]name
NC
Cause I'm...
Lord I'm b[F]ad news everybody k[C]nows
[G7]Always gettin' into trouble
And [F]leaving little girls
That hate to see me [C]go
NC
Well from north to south
From east to west the story is the same
From one state to the other
I had to change my [C7]name
Lord I'm [F]bad news everybody [C]knows
[G7]Always gettin' into trouble
And [F]leaving little girls
That hate to see me [C]go
NC
Well they tried to hang me down in Oakland
They did in San Francisco
But I wouldn't choke and I broke their rope
And they had to let me [C7]go
Lord I'm [F]bad news everybody [C]knows
[G7]Always gettin' into trouble
And [F]leaving little girls
That hate to see me [C]go
