Billy |
| Billy said he’s got it figured out again |
| Billy said he found a way out of the mess |
| Bill said the system was corrupt |
| Bill said the system was corrupt |
| Billy came from somewhere, Louisiana |
| Went around the world to mend a broken heart |
| Billy was living for the road… |
| Billy was living for the road… |
| Billy made love to a girl in Iowa |
| Met her in a bar in Des Moines |
| She was wearing a helmet signed by Elvis |
| That her mama got before the war |
| For her papa who never came home |
| So they sent a flag to her door |
| That she wears like a super hero |
| As she speeds up through the empty streets |
| That her daddy fought to keep so clean |
| From the monsters hiding over seas |
| From the monsters screaming on TV |
| Billy had a dream of flying aeroplanes |
| Cruising through the clouds above the rain |
| Billy didn’t want to drop no atom bomb |
| Billy just wanted to write a song |
| For a girl he met in Iowa |
| Billy never saw her face again |
| Billy never was the same again |
| And every time he sees another flag |
| Just remembers the story of her dad |
| And the helmet that he never had |
| Billy why you hiding behind the glass? |
| Billy why you running from the past? |
