Lyrics The Ballad of Billy the Kid

From a town known as Wheeling West Virginia
Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand
And his daring life of crime made him a legend in his time
East and west of the Rio Grande
Well he started with a bank in Colorado
In the pocket of his vest a Colt he hid
And his age and his size took the teller by surprise and the word spread of Billy the Kid
Well he never traveled heavy
Yes he always rode alone
And he soon put many older guns to shame
And he never had a sweetheart
And he never had a home
But the cowboy and the rancher knew his name
Well he robbed his way from Utah to Oklahoma
And the law just could not seem to track him down
And it served his legend well for the folks they loved to tell 'bout when Billy the Kid came to town
Well one cold day a posse captured Billy
And the judge said
String him up for what he did
And the cowboys and their kin like the sea came pourin' in to watch the hangin' of Billy the Kid
Well he never traveled heavy
Yes he always rode alone
And he soon put many older guns to shame
And he never had a sweetheart
But he finally found a home underneath the boot hill grave that bears his name
From a town known as Oyster Bay Long Island
Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand
And his daring life of crime made him a legend in his time
East and west of the Rio Grande
