Billy

(앨범: Smoke From The Chimney - 2021)

Billy, we've come a long ways together
And through it all, you've been just like a brother to me
Billy, we've had our share of ups and downs
Froze our tails sleeping on the ground
And the jobs were few and far between

We've been knocking around together so long
Singing them same old songs
Went out in the rain so long
I swear we're shrinking

Billy, lately I have done some thinking
And when I look back on our lives
We sure had ourselves a time
But you know, it's been a while where we traveled
And it's starting to unravel
We leave so many loose ends behind

We've been bucked off and kicked so many times
And the ground just keeps getting harder
Billy you know well as I, we ain't getting no younger

Billy, another summer's come and gone
Now with the winter coming on
I know we planned on heading south
But you know, I've thought about it several days
And these words I'm about to say
They don't taste good in my mouth

But there's someone I love back home
And if she'll still have me
Guess this time I'm saying so long, you go on without me
Ain't no easy way of saying goodbye
So be sure and tell em all down in Texas
I said "Hi"
