Lyrics for Billy The Kid by Marty Robbins:
| | | Artist: | Marty Robbins |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Billy The Kid | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 91 | | | | Lyrics: | I´ll sing you a true song of Billy the Kid
I´ll sing of some desperate deeds that he
did
´Way out in New Mexico long long ago
When a man's only chance was his own
forty-four.
When Billy the Kid was a very young lad
In old Silver City he went to the
bad
´Way out in the West with a gun in his hand
At the age of twelve years he did kill
his first man.
There's Mexican maidens play guitars and sing
Songs about Billy,
their boy bandit king
´Ere his young manhood has reached his sad end
With a notch an
his pistol for twenty one men!
Was on a sad night when poor Billy died
He said to his
friend, "I'm not satisfied
There's twenty one men I have put bullets through
Sheriff Pat
Garrett must make twenty two!"
I´ll sing you how Billy the Kid met his fate
The
bright moon was shinin', the hour was late
Shot down by Pat Garrett who once was his
friend
The young outlaw's life is now come to an end.
There's many a man with a face fine
and fair
Who start out in life with a chance to be square
Just like poor Billy they wander
astray
They'll lose their lives in the very same way | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
