Billy |
| Billy left on Friday night with twenty dollars cash |
| Had a thousand more and a diamond on his hand |
| When he got back |
| I don’t know just where Billy got that dough |
| Saturday he spent in style |
| Drinks were on the house |
| Lincoln here, and a Jackson there |
| Suspicions were aroused |
| A dime was dropped and a name was named |
| A body soon was found |
| A travelin' Bible salesman on his monthly trip to town |
| Three bullet holes |
| A .38 done took his soul |
| What do you know |
| No diamond ring no money roll |
| A quick investigation |
| They dragged Billy to the station |
| And broke him down with the third degree |
| His alibi unraveled |
| Judge Riley banged his gavel |
| A 12-man jury all agreed |
| So he must be guilty |
| I knew Billy spent that night |
| Winning big at cards |
| And the salesman was a married man |
| Who broke my sister’s heart |
| Billy sits in Levenworth |
| Waiting for the gas |
| And I know lots of other things |
| But no one ever asked |
| So they’ll never know |
| Swear to God they’ll never know |
| Case is closed, that’s how the story will be told |
