The Ballad of Billy Joe - Jerry Lee Lewis[00:00:00]
I'm the man their gonna hang for killin' Billy Joe[00:00:01]
But there's a whole lot[00:00:07]
More to the story than they know[00:00:08]
Listen to my side of it and[00:00:13]
I think that you will see[00:00:16]
The reason why I killed to boy[00:00:19]
That made a fool of me[00:00:22]
There was a girl named Mary Anne[00:00:31]
And Mary Anne was all the world to me[00:00:35]
We planned to get married[00:00:41]
And we set the date for the wedding was to be[00:00:44]
But I walked up to her house one night[00:00:50]
And out there on the porch they sat[00:00:54]
And I swore they'd never get away with that[00:01:00]
Billy Joe took Mary Anne[00:01:13]
And when I to the dance hall one night[00:01:16]
They didn't know I was standin out there[00:01:23]
In the shadows out of sight[00:01:27]
They sat down at a table and[00:01:32]
She smiled as he gave her hand the pat[00:01:36]
And I swore they would never get away with that[00:01:41]
I swore they would never get away[00:01:55]
With breakin' my heart[00:01:58]
I knew that that was just one way[00:02:03]
To keep them apart[00:02:06]
Oh everybody says his mother begged him[00:02:12]
Not to take his guns to town[00:02:16]
He should have listened to her[00:02:21]
Because she knew that[00:02:24]
I was gonna shoot him down[00:02:26]
I'll be hung tomorrow[00:02:31]
Just because I had to kill that little rat[00:02:34]
But I swore that he never get away with that[00:02:40]
And Billy Joe didn't get away with that[00:02:46]
