Lyrics for Song: Billy Bayou
Lyrics for Album: 20 Classics [Music City] [2004]
(Roger Miller)
Back about eighteen hundred and some
A Louisiana couple had a red headed son
No name soothe him Jim, Jack or Joe
They just called him Billy Bayou.
Billy, Billy Bayou watch where you go
You're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days.
--- Instrumental ---
Billy was a boy kinda big for a size
Red hair and freckles and big blue eyes
Thirteen years from the day he was born
Billy fought the battle of the Little Big Horn.
Billy, Billy Bayou watch where you go
You're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days.
--- Instrumental ---
One said day Billy cried ho-ho
I can whip the feathers of Geronimo
He smarted off the chief got mad
This nearly ended our Louisiana lad.
Billy, Billy Bayou watch where you go
You're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days.
--- Instrumental ---
One day in eighteen-seventy-eight
A pretty girl walked through Bill's front gate
He didn't know whether to stand there and run
He would up married cause he did neighter one.
Billy, Billy Bayou watch where you go
You're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days.
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days...
