Billy the Kid - Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers

Well I heard you in the back room

Your friends had a laugh on me Passed my name through the cantina

Yeah your face was hard to read

Something in your demeanor

Should of given you away

But I was desperate for a friend

I was getting used to making mistakes

Well I went down hard

Like Billy the Kid

Yeah, I went down hard

Yeah, but I got up again

I remember you my baby

I remember you so well

And your house out in the suburbs

You had your wishing well

They say be careful who you believe

Be careful who you trust

Did you smile when you pulled the trigger

That dropped me in the dust

Well, I went down hard

Like Billy the Kid

Yeah, I went down hard

Yeah, but I got up again

Well, you caught me in the bedroom

Cotton fever in a sweat

I was fighting for recovery

But I wasn’t giving up yet

You offered no assistance

Yeah, you looked at me and you lied

Oh it really stunned me When you went to the other side

I went down hard

Like Billy the Kid

Yeah, I went down hard

Oh, but I got up again
