Bad news, bad news,
Come to me where I sleep,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Sayin' one of your friends
Is in trouble deep,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.

Tell me the trouble,
Tell me once to my ear,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Joliet prison
For ninety-nine years,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.

Tell me once
How this came to be,
Turn, turn, turn again.
It was manslaughter
In the highest degree,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.

I sat down and wrote
The best words I could write,
Turn, turn, turn again.
As the judge
To see me on Wednesday night,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.

Without a reply,
I left by the moon,
Turn, turn, turn again.
I was in his chambers
By the next afternoon,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.

Tell me now
I asked without fear,
Turn, turn, turn again.
That one of my friends
Could get ninety-nine years,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.

A crash on the highway
Flew the car to a field,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Four people killed
With him at the wheel,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
