Death of Outlaw Billy John |
Meridith come over in a hurry |
Cause theres indian billy john to the gallows |
She runs to hanks' salloon in a hurry |
Sees the lawmen sitting there nothing to worry |
Forteen banks and thirteen cold blooded murders |
The lawnman is laying down her … |
He says darling 'you know we keep law and order |
And let this be a warning to all his hellraising men' |
The junifine street was packed at the town hall door |
They had him on a footstool with the news around his neck |
Sit draw a breath and hold it tight |
As forgiveness of the people maybe the lord could you slide |
Then you keep that foot stool from beneath the soles of his feet |
Then he saw into the light from te dark end of the street |
Mamma cried, mamma cried you feel al that weak |
He wasn’t born mean it was others that made him mean |
They buried him a mile of ten from the bottom of the creek |
Just an old rusty town simontary |
Mamma dont come to visit, and it kills me |
She puts on her evening gall and works the dark hour streets |
Keeps the whiskey in her veins to carry |
The death of Outlaw Billy Johns memory |
Keeps the whishkey in her veins to carry |
The death of Outlaw Billy Johns legendary memory |
