Billy was 17 and mean as hell[00:00:04]
Bonnie said she was 30 it was hard to tell[00:00:08]
Billy met Bonnie on a Saturday night[00:00:13]
At the dirt track races it was love at first sight[00:00:17]
Bonnie was wilder than the west wind blows[00:00:22]
Taught Billy every single thing he knows[00:00:27]
But she never told billy what she left out[00:00:31]
The part about the trouble when your times runs out[00:00:36]
When the thrill is gone when your deal goes south[00:00:40]
It's all over when your time runs out[00:00:46]
Bonnie said "Billy don't you think it's time[00:00:58]
We moved on a little further down the line"[00:01:03]
So they knocked off a Texaco south of town[00:01:07]
Blew down the highway with the ragtop down[00:01:12]
Billy woke Bonnie up about first light[00:01:17]
Said "You drive honey I've been up all night"[00:01:21]
Now Billy wasn't sweatin' no APB[00:01:26]
‘Cause they didn't leave a single soul alive to see[00:01:27]
The boy was just 16 made his mama proud[00:01:34]
That don't mean nothin' when your time runs out[00:01:40]
Bonnie kept pushin' that Cadillac[00:01:52]
Billy passed out with the seat reared back[00:01:57]
Slept through Louisiana then just past dark[00:02:02]
Bonnie pulled over in a roadside park[00:02:06]
Left Billy sleeping and she called the cops[00:02:11]
He never knew nothin' when the dime was dropped[00:02:15]
Bonnie knew what she had to do[00:02:20]
She called the sheriff and she cried on cue[00:02:24]
And the state police rousted Billy out[00:02:28]
He was dreaming about Bonnie when his time ran out[00:02:31]
The sheriff told Billy "Boy you're bound to die[00:02:35]
‘Cause this young lady's gonna testify[00:02:46]
That you done took her off against her will[00:02:56]
And she told us about the robbery and the boy you killed"[00:02:59]
The judge said "Billy what you got to say[00:03:05]
Before I have the sheriff carry you away"[00:03:10]
Billy looked Bonnie right in the eye[00:03:11]
But he didn't even have to ask her why[00:03:18]
But he turned around as they led him out[00:03:23]
He said "I'll see you down in hell when your time runs out"[00:03:28]
