I see the bad moon the rising

I see troubles on the way

I see earthquakes and lightnin'

I see bad times today

Well don't go around tonight

Well it's bound to take your life

There's a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes a blowin'

I know the end is comin' soon

I fear river's overflowin'

I hear voice of rage and ruin

And I don't go around tonight

Well it's bound to take your life

There's the bad moon on the rise

Hope you got your things together

I hope you're quite prepared to die

Looks like we're in for nasty weather

One eye is taken for an eye

Hey don't go around tonight

Well it's bound to take your life

There's a bad moon on the rise

Sit down go around tonight

Well it's bound to take your life

There's a bad moon on the rise
