The Ballad of Billy the Kid (Live) - Billy Joel[00:00:00]
From a town known as Wheeling West Virginia[00:01:06]
Rode a boy with a six gun in his hand[00:01:11]
And his daring life of crime[00:01:17]
Made him a legend in his time[00:01:19]
East and west of the Rio Grande[00:01:21]
Well he started with a bank in Colorado[00:01:35]
In the pocket of his vest a Colt he hid[00:01:40]
And his age and his size[00:01:45]
Took the teller by surprise[00:01:48]
And the word spread of Billy the kid[00:01:51]
Well he never travelled heavy[00:01:58]
Yes he always rode alone[00:02:01]
And he soon put many older guns to shame[00:02:03]
And he never had a sweetheart[00:02:08]
And he never had a home[00:02:11]
But the cowboy and the rancher knew his name[00:02:13]
Well he robbed his way from Utah to Oklahoma[00:02:19]
And the largest could not seem to track him down[00:02:24]
And it served his legend well[00:02:28]
For the folks they loved to tell about[00:02:31]
When Billy the kid came to town[00:02:34]
One cold day a posse captured Billy[00:03:30]
And the judge said String him up for what he did[00:03:35]
And the cowboys and their kin[00:03:40]
Like the sea came pouring in[00:03:42]
To watch the hanging of Billy the kid[00:03:44]
Eell he never travelled heavy[00:03:53]
Yes he always rode alone[00:03:55]
And he soon put many older guns to shame[00:03:58]
And he never had a sweetheart[00:04:03]
But he finally found a home[00:04:05]
Under the boothill grave that bears his name[00:04:08]
From a town known as Oyster Bay Long Island[00:04:14]
Rode a boy with a six pack in his hand[00:04:19]
And his daring life of crime[00:04:25]
Made him a legend in his time[00:04:27]
East and west of the Rio Grande[00:04:29]
