| Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| I didn’t like the way he cocked his hat
|
| And he wore his gun all wrong
|
| We had the same girlfriend
|
| And he never forgot it
|
| She had a cute little Chihuahua
|
| Until one day he up and shot it
|
| He rode the hard country down the New Mexico line
|
| He had a silver pocketwatch that he never did wind
|
| He crippled the piano player
|
| For playin' his favorite song
|
| No, Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| I didn’t like the way he parted his hair
|
| And he wore his gun all wrong
|
| He was bad to the bone
|
| All hopped up on speed
|
| I would’ve left him alone
|
| If it wasn’t for that Senorita
|
| He gave her silver and he paid her hotel bill
|
| But it was me she loved and she said she always will
|
| I’d always go and see her
|
| When Billy was gone
|
| Yeah, Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| I didn’t like the way he tied his shoes
|
| And he wore his gun all wrong
|
| One day I said to Billy
|
| «I've got this foolproof scheme»
|
| We’ll rob Wells Fargo
|
| «It's bustin at the seams.»
|
| I admit that I framed him but I don’t feel bad
|
| Cause the way I was livin' was drivin' me mad
|
| Billy reached for his gun
|
| But his gun was on wrong
|
| Yeah, Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| Me and Billy the Kid never got along
|
| But I did like the way he swayed in the wind
|
| While I played him his favorite song
|
| Now my baby sings harmony with me
|
| To «La Cucaracha»
|
| She winds her silver pocket watch
|
| And pets her new Chihuahua
|
| I moved in to the Hotel and got a room with a shower
|
| We lay and listen to that watch tick hour after hour
|
| Outside I hear the wind
|
| Blowin' o so strong
|
| Me and Billy the Kid never got along |
