BAD NEW IS ALL THE WIND CAN CARRY (Richard Thompson) This house is dark and shattered Luck has gone out the door No daytime will shine In this empty room no more Bad news is all the wind can carry I heard a sound one morning About my mind had to weep I heard a man dig my love's grave The hole was dark the hole was deep Bad news is all the wind can carry Some people say she wandered And that she had a price likewise I'll cut their tongues and hang 'em high They'll rot away with all their lies Bad news is all the wind can carry I'll steal a boat and rig her On course I'll tie the wheel I'll lay down to the stars Until the bottom meets the keel Bad news is all the wind can carry ---------------------------------------------------------------- recorded on Richard Thompson's first solo demo tape ca. late 1971 When it was proposed that this song should be included in a fan club tape, Richard said "Over my dead body".
