The Ballad Of Billy The Kid - Billy Joel[00:00:01]
From a town known as Wheeling West Virginia[00:01:05]
Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand[00:01:10]
And his daring life of crime[00:01:16]
Made him a legend in his time[00:01:18]
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[00:01:41]
And his age and his size[00:01:46]
Took the teller by surprise[00:01:48]
And the word spread of Billy the Kid[00:01:52]
Well he never travelled heavy[00:02:00]
Yes he always rode alone[00:02:02]
And he soon put many older guns to shame[00:02:05]
Well he never had a sweetheart[00:02:11]
And he never had a home[00:02:13]
But the cowboys and the ranchers knew his name[00:02:16]
Well he robbed his way from Utah to Oklahoma[00:02:21]
And the law just could not seem to track him down[00:02:27]
And it served his legend well[00:02:32]
For the folks they love to tell[00:02:34]
'Bout when Billy the Kid came to town[00:02:37]
One cold day a posse captured Billy[00:03:37]
And the judge said "String 'im up for what he did "[00:03:42]
And the cowboys and their kin[00:03:47]
Like the sea came pourin' in[00:03:50]
To watch the hangin' of Billy the Kid[00:03:52]
Well he never travelled heavy[00:04:01]
Yes he always rode alone[00:04:03]
And he soon put many older guns to shame[00:04:06]
Well he never had a sweetheart[00:04:12]
Tho' he finally found a home[00:04:14]
Underneath the Boot Hill grave that bears his name[00:04:17]
From a town known as Oyster Bay Long Island[00:04:22]
Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand[00:04:28]
And his daring life of crime[00:04:34]
Made him a legend in his time[00:04:36]
East and West of the Rio Grande[00:04:39]
