Well, bad news travels like wildfire, good news travels slow. 

They call me "Wildfire", 'cause ev'rybody knows 
      D7                                 A 
I'm bad news ev'rywhere I go.

Always gettin' into trouble 
                                                                   A 
And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go.

They tried to hang me in Oakland and they did in Fransisco. 

But I wouldn't choke, I broke their rope and they had to let me go, 
                 D7                                 A 
'cause I'm bad news ev'rywhere I go. 
E7 
Always gettin' into trouble

And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go. 

                   A 
Now, from north to south to east to west, the story is the same. 

From one state to another I have to change my name, 
                 D7                                 A 
'cause I'm bad news ev'rywhere I go. 
E7 
Always gettin' into trouble

And leavin' little girls that hate to see me go.

Well, now I picked peaches in Georgia, I lumberjacked in Maine. 

I've been hired, fired and jailed; any town you can name, 
                 E7                                 B 
'cause I'm bad news ev'rywhere I go.
