Lyrics:

of Billy the Kid

Well he never traveled heavy

Yes, he always rode alone

And he soon put other 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'd love to tell 'bout when Billy the Kid came to town

Well one cold day a posse captured Billy

And the judge said

"String 'I'm 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 other 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
