Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Billy 4 , by - Oh SusannaBilly 4 |
| Billy came from the east |
| You came from the sea |
| Came with a heart full of hope |
| And a head full of dreams |
| I danced in your arms |
| And then in your arms I did sleep |
| And you promised me |
| Never would I ever weep |
| Wake up, Billy my love |
| I’m goin' away |
| I can’t stand to see you |
| Dyin' this way |
| Your dreams aren’t your own, now |
| They belong to the habit you keep |
| They belong to the needle |
| The serum, the sleep |
| Billy, a letter that came |
| Said you passed away |
| Arms so shot full of holes |
| No life they could hold |
| I’ll cut off your limbs |
| And bury your body at sea |
| And leave your arms on the shore |
| For the buzzards to eat |
| Billy, you came from the east |
| You came from the sea |
| Came with a heart full of hope |
| And a head full of dreams |
| Go rest in peace, now |
| On the bed of the ocean you’ll sleep |
| And you never will wake |
| And forever I’ll weep |
