SOMETIMES THE GOOD NEWS IS BAD (The Boohers)
Writer: Dixie Hall (BMI)
Co-writer: Tom T. Hall (BMI)

CHORUS: I HEARD THE GOOD NEWS THIS MORNING
DARLING IT MADE ME FEEL SAD
THAT KIND OF GOOD NEWS MAKES ME FEEL BLUE
SOMETIMES THE GOOD NEWS IS BAD

VERSE 1: THEY SAY THAT YOU'RE HAPPY, THEY SAY YOU LOOK GOOD
HE DOES THINGS FOR YOU THAT I NEVER COULD
THEY SAY YOU BOUNCED BACK IN NO TIME AT ALL
YOU DID THE WALKING AND I TOOK THE FALL

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 2: NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS IS SOMETHING I'VE FOUND
WHAT I'VE BEEN HEARING IS BRINGING ME DOWN
I'M GLAD YOU'RE HAPPY WISH I WAS TOO
SOMETIMES IT'S FUNNY WHAT GOOD NEWS CAN DO

REPEAT CHORUS
