Billy - Waylon Jennings

Billy we’ve come along way together and through it all

You’ve been just like a brother to me

And Billy we’ve had our share of ups and downs

Froze our tails sleeping on the ground

When the jobs were few and far between

We’ve been knocking around together so long

Singing them same old songs

Been out in the rain so long I swear we’re shrinking

Billy lately I have done some thinking

When I look back on our lives

We’ve sure had ourself a time

But you know it’s been a wild world we traveled

And it’s startin' to unravel

We leave so many loose ends behind

We’ve been bucked off and kicked so many times

And the ground just keeps gettin' harder

Billy you know well as I we ain’t gettin' no younger

Billy another summer’s come and gone

Now with winter coming on

I know we planned on heading south

But Billy I thought about it several days

And these words I’m about to say

They don’t taste good in my mouth

But there’s someone who’s waiting back home

Lord, if she’ll still have me

Guess I’ll be saying so long you go on without me

Ain’t no easy way of saying goodbye

So be sure and tell 'em all down in Texas I said hi
