I've seen the bad moon a-risin'
I've seen troubles on the way
I've seen earthquakes and lightnin'
I've seen bad times today
Don't go 'round tonight
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 coming soon
I fear rivers overflowing
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Don't go 'round tonight
It's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Hope you've got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye
Don't go 'round tonight
It's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
No, don't go 'round tonight
It's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
