I see a bad moon a-rising
I see trouble on the way
I see earth quakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today

Don't go 'round tonight
It's bound and take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
I hear hurricanes a-blowing

I know the end is coming soon
I fear rivers over flowing
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Don't go 'round tonight

It's bound and take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quit prepared to die

Look's like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye
Don't go 'round tonight
It's bound and take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
