About The Song
“Bad Moon Rising” by Creedence Clearwater Revival is a 1969 song from their album “Green River.” It was written by John Fogerty and released as the lead single on April 16, 1969, four months before the album. The song reached number 2 in the United States and topped charts in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, South Africa, and Ireland. It also achieved high rankings in other countries.
It was inspired by the film “The Devil And Daniel Webster,” the lyrics convey a sense of impending doom, with references to a hurricane and themes of chaos and uncertainty. John Fogerty, the songwriter, drew inspiration from the movie’s portrayal of a town devastated by a hurricane. It’s often interpreted as a warning or premonition of troubled times to come.

Lyrics
I see the bad moon a-rising
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightning
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 a-blowing
I know the end is coming soon
I fear rivers overflowing
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
All right
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
Well, don’t go around tonight
Well, it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
Don’t come around tonight
Well, it’s bound to take your life
There’s a bad moon on the rise
