Billy Porter

Walking down an empty road

I saw a man in old grey clothes

A stranger



Passing by he smiled at me

But when I looked I realised the danger



For his eyes they looked so empty and cold

And something told me that I'm gonna be rolled

In my pocket only cents and dimes

But then for them he'd gladly kill me



Walking past and walking fast

I managed just to slip around a corner



Thought he'd hear my running feet

As I went pounding down the street

Like thunder



Well I've never heard my heart beat so fast

And I've never been so scared in the past

And I never ever realised

That this place could be evil to me



Billy Porter

You didn't tell me that I needed a gun

Billy Porter

When you wrote you said

That this place is fun

What have I done



Well I've never heard my heart beat so fast

And I've never been so scared in the past

And I never ever realised

That this place could be evil to me



Let me tell ya'

Now Billy's smart and Billy's tough

He's good to have

When the going's rough

He told me

'Don't go out on your own at night

For if you do you'll have to fight

Stay by me'



Now he's teaching me

Each and every day

And I think that in this place

I might stay

And I never, ever realised

What a roughneck I would turn out to be



Billy Porter

You never told me that I needed a gun

Billy Porter

When you wrote you said

That this place is fun

What can be done



Billy Porter

You never told me that I needed a gun

Billy Porter

When you wrote you said

That this place is fun



Billy Porter

You never told me that I'd be on the run

Billy Porter

What would father say if he saw his son

Billy Porter

You never told me that I needed a gun

Billy Porter

When you wrote you said

That this place is fun
