| Lyrics: | 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 once to my ear,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Joliet prison
And ninety-nine
years,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
Oh what's the charge
Of how this
came to be,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Manslaughter
In the highest of degree,
Turn,
turn to the rain
And the wind.
I sat down and wrote
The best words I could
write,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Explaining to the judge
I'd be there on Wednesday
night,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
Without a reply,
I left by the
moon,
Turn, turn, turn again.
And was in his chambers
By the next afternoon,
Turn,
turn to the rain
And the wind.
Could ya tell me the facts?
I said without
fear,
Turn, turn, turn again.
That a friend of mine
Would 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.
There was four persons killed
And he was at the
wheel,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
But I knew him as good
As I'm
knowin' myself,
Turn, turn, turn again.
And he wouldn't harm a life
That belonged to
someone else,
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
The judge spoke
Out of the
side of his mouth,
Turn, turn, turn again.
Sayin', "The witness who saw,
He left little
doubt,"
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind.
That may be true,
He's got a
sentence to serve,
Turn, turn, turn aga |
