Big Bad Bill Is Sweet William Now |
| In the town of Louisville they got a man they call Big Bad Bill |
| I want to tell you, he sure was tough, and he certainly did strut his stuff |
| He had folks all scared to death, when he walked by they held their breath |
| He was a fighting man, sure enough |
| Now Bill took himself a wife, and he leads a different life, cause |
| Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now |
| Married life has changed him some how |
| He’s the man that they all used to fear |
| But now the people call him sweet pappa Willie dear |
| Stronger than Samson I declare |
| Till the brown skinned mama bobbed his hair |
| Big Bad Bill don’t fight any more |
| Well he washes dishes and he mops up the floor |
| Well he used to spend his evenin’s lookin' for a fight |
| Now he’s got to see his mama every night |
| Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now |
| Well he used to spend his evenin’s lookin' for a fight |
| Now he’s got to see his mama every night |
| Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now |
