  • Billy's blue
    With his head hangin' to
    His shoes
    Right the wrong
    Or play a song
    To ease billy's blues
    Billy's down
    He was born he was bound
    To lose
    Right the wrong
    Or play a song
    To ease billy's blues

    Some folks have it good
    And some folks have it no good
    But billy's go it bad
    He's so endlessly sad

    Billy's blues
    With his head hangin' to
    His shoes
    Somebody please right the wrong
    Or play a song
    To ease Billy's blues
