Letra de Billy Bayou

Back about eighteen hundred and some A Louisiana couple had a red headed son No name fitted him Jim Jack or Joe They just called him Billy Bayou Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go You're walkin' on quick sand walk slow Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say A pretty girl'll get you one of these days Billy was a boy kinda big for a size Red hair and freckles and big blue eyes Thirteen years from the day he was born Billy fought the battle of the Little Big Horn Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go One sad day Billy cried ho-ho I can whip the feathers of Geronimo He smarted off then the chief got mad That like to have ended our Louisiana lad Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go One day in 1878 A pretty girl walked through Billy's front gate He didn't know whether to cry out and run And now he's married cause he get neither one Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go
