Billy

Текст песни

Lyrics Let me tell you a story About an old friend of mine Somebody left him in a pound In a R.S.P.C.A for us to find Just a fuzzy black pup He was hungry and feeling alone We put him in the back seat Told her we were taking him home Run, billy , run With the heart of a rebel child Oh, run, billy , run Be just as free as you are wild A few years later We moved into a new house And he followed those kids around Yeah, he kept them safe from harm And he loved to chase birds And dig up the backyard He’d take off like a bullet Man, you should have seen him go Run, billy , run With the heart of a rebel child Oh, run, Billy , run Be just as free as you are wild It was hot on a Saturday The night that Billy died He was weak and couldn't use his legs So I laid down by his side He put his head on my hand Like he done so many times I told him he was a good dog Then I told him goodbye Run, Billy , run With the heart of a rebel child Oh, run, Billy , run Be just as free as you are wild I had a revelation As we said our final goodbye I can tell you right now That a dog has a soul And I thought to myself As we put him in his final rest I never knew me a better dog And I guess I never will Run, Billy , run With the heart of a rebel child Oh, run, Billy , run Be just as free as you are wild Oh, run, Billy , run With the heart of a rebel child Oh, run, Billy , run Be just as free as you are wild
