Текст песни Billy Bayou

(Roger Miller)

Back about eighteen hundred and some
A Louisiana couple had a red headed son
No name suited him Jim Jack or Joe
So 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 his 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.

One sad day Billy cried ho-ho
I can whip the feathers off of Geronimo
He smarted off the chief got mad
That like to have 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 ---

Then one day in eighteen-seventy-eight
A pretty girl walked through Bill's front gate
He didn't know whether to stand there or 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...
