Billy Dee(Live At The Philharmonic) - Kris Kristofferson [00:00:02]

Written by：Kris Kristofferson[00:00:03]

Oh Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty-one[00:00:09]

Fooling with some foolish things he could've left alone[00:00:14]

But he had to try to satisfy a thirst he couldn't name[00:00:18]

Driven toward the darkness by the devils in his veins[00:00:24]

All around the honky-tonks searching for a sign[00:00:30]

Getting by on getting high on women words and wine[00:00:35]

Some folks called him crazy lord and others called him free[00:00:39]

We just called us lucky for the love of Billy Dee[00:00:44]

Busy goin' his own way and speakin' his own words[00:01:00]

Facin' and forgettin' every warnin' that he heard[00:01:04]

Makin' friends and takin' any crazy chance he could[00:01:09]

Getting busted for the bad times and believin' in the good[00:01:14]

Billy took a beatin' from a world he meant no harm[00:01:20]

The score was written in the scars upon his arm[00:01:25]

Some felt he was payin' for the life he tried to lead[00:01:30]

But all we felt was sorry for our good friend Billy Dee[00:01:35]

It may be his soul was bigger than a body's ought to be[00:01:50]

Singing songs and bringin' laughter to the likes of you and me[00:01:55]

'Cause the world he saw was sadder than the one he hoped to find[00:02:00]

But it wasn't near as lonesome as the one he left behind[00:02:05]

Yesterday they found him on the floor of his hotel[00:02:12]

Reachin' toward the needle lord that drove him down to hell[00:02:17]

Some said it was suicide others blame the speed[00:02:21]

We just called it crucified when Billy Dee OD'd[00:02:26]
