Billy Got Some Bad News Today |
Billy got some bad news today |
Billy hardly knew what to say |
He went to the doctor |
Doctor turned away |
Billy got some bad news today |
Billy’s friends are gatherin' 'round |
This is when the chips come down |
He didn’t have to ask |
He didn’t make a sound |
Billy’s friends are gatherin' 'round |
Billy is a friend of mine |
We were kids together |
Playing games of our design |
In Michigan weather |
We were boys becoming men |
We were different somehow |
Well, it never mattered then |
And it doesn’t matter now |
Billy is a strong, strong man |
He never was the kind who ran |
He can handle this |
If anybody can |
‘Cause Billy’s a strong, strong man |
Billy is a friend of mine |
We were kids together |
Playin' games of our design |
In Michigan weather |
We were boys becoming men |
We were different somehow |
Well, it never mattered then |
And it doesn’t matter now |
Billy got some bad news today |
Billy hardly knew what to say |
He went to the doctor |
Doctor turned away |
Billy got some bad news today |
Oh, he went to the doctor |
Doctor turned away |
Billy got some bad news today |
