Lyrics

The original as it was performed by Creedence Clear Water Revival

I see the bad moon arising
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today

Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes ablowing
I know the end is coming soon
I fear rivers over flowing
I hear the voice of rage and ruin

Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

Hope you 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 around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise

Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise
