Billy — текст песни (Waylon Jennings)

Billy we`ve come along way together and through it all
You`ve been just like a brother to me
And Billy we`ve had our share of ups and downs froze our tails sleeping on the ground
When the jobs were few and far between
We`ve been knocking around together so long singing them same old songs
Been out in the rain so long I swear we`re shrinking
Billy lately I have done some thinking when I look back on our lives
We`ve sure had ourself a time
But you know it`s been a wild world we traveled
And it`s startin` to unravel we leave so many loose ends behind
We`ve been bucked off and kicked so many times
And the ground just keeps gettin` harder
Billy you know well as I we ain`t gettin` no younger
[ harmonica ]
Billy another summer`s come and gone now with winter coming on
I know we planned on heading south
But Billy I 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 who`s waiting back home Lord if she`ll still have me
Guess I`ll be 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
