The Ballad Of Billy Kid**(Live) - Billy Joel[00:00:00]
From a town known as Wheeling West Virginia[00:01:02]
Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand[00:01:07]
And his daring life of crime[00:01:13]
Made him a legend in his time[00:01:15]
East and west of the Rio Grande[00:01:18]
Well he started with a bank in Colorado[00:01:31]
In the pocket of his vest a Colt he hid[00:01:37]
And his age and his size[00:01:42]
Took the teller by surprise[00:01:44]
And the word spread of Billy the Kid[00:01:46]
Well he never traveled heavy[00:01:55]
Yes he always rode alone[00:01:57]
And he soon put many older guns to shame[00:02:00]
And he never had a sweetheart[00:02:05]
And he never had a home[00:02:08]
But the cowboy and the rancher knew his name[00:02:10]
Well he robbed his way from Utah to Oklahoma[00:02:16]
And the law just could not seem to track him down[00:02:21]
And it served his legend well[00:02:26]
For the folks they'd love to tell[00:02:29]
'Bout when Billy the Kid came to town[00:02:31]
Well one cold day a posse captured Billy[00:03:30]
And the judge said "String 'im up for what he did "[00:03:35]
And the cowboys and their kin[00:03:40]
Like the sea came pourin' in[00:03:43]
To watch the hangin' of Billy the Kid[00:03:45]
Well he never traveled heavy[00:03:53]
Yes he always rode alone[00:03:56]
And he soon put many older guns to shame[00:03:58]
And he never had a sweetheart[00:04:04]
But he finally found a home[00:04:06]
Underneath the boothill grave that bears his name[00:04:09]
From a town known as Oyster Bay Long Island[00:04:14]
Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand[00:04:20]
And his daring life of crime[00:04:26]
Made him a legend in his time[00:04:28]
East and west of the Rio Grande[00:04:31]
