Paroles officielles de la chanson "Billy Bayou"

Back about eighteen hundred and some
A Louisiana couple had a redheaded son
No name suited him, Jim, Jack or Joe
They just called him Billy Bayou
Billy, Billy Bayou, watch where you go
You’re walking on quicksand, walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou, watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
Billy was a boy...kind of big for his size
Red hair, freckles, and big blue eyes
Thirteen years from the day he was born
Bill fought the battle of the Little Big Horn
Billy, Billy Bayou, watch where you go
You’re walking on quicksand, walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou, watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
One sad day Billy cried "Ho! Ho!
I can whip the feathers off of Geronimo"
He smarted off, the chief got mad
This nearly ended our Louisiana lad
Billy, Billy Bayou, watch where you go
You’re walking on quicksand, walk slow
Billy, Billy Bayou, watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
One day in eighteen seventy
