Billy Bayou - Roger Miller-歌词

Billy Bayou - Roger Miller

Back about eighteen hundred and some

A Louisiana couple had a redheaded 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 walking on quicksand walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say

A pretty girl'll get you one of these days

Now bill was a boy kind of big for his size

Red hair and freckles and big blue eyes

Thirteen years from the day he was born

Bill fought the battle of the little big horn

Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go

You're walking on quicksand walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say

A pretty girl'll get you one of these days

Now one sad day Billy cried "Ho ho

I whipped the feathers off of Geronimo"

He smarted off the chief got mad

This like to ended our Louisiana lad

Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go

You're walking on quicksand walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say

A pretty girl'll get you one of these days

And 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 wound up married 'cause he did neither one

Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go

You're walking on quicksand walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say

A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
