[Verse 1]
Billie Sol was a man from the giant Texas land
He put the Chamber of Commerce on a limb
They voted him the best and the government did no less
'Til the I.O.U.'s of Texas fell on him
[Chorus]
Stand tall, Billie Sol, we don't know you at all
We've taken down your pictures from the wall
Well, we don't want to handle an agriculture scandal
We have got to face elections in the fall
[Verse 2]
Oh, I remember when Bill had influential friends
He celebrated Christmas every day
He filled several Texas banks with his fertilizer tanks
Influential friends don't die they only fade away
[Chorus]
Stand tall, Billie Sol, we don't know you at all
We've taken down your pictures from the wall
Well, we don't want to handle an agriculture scandal
We have got to face elections in the fall
[Verse 3]
The Democrats deny and Orville Freeman sighs
He said "Everyone around was fair and square"
But he was no more convincin' than Ezra Taft Benson
As resignations cropped up everywhere
Billie Sol was a man from the giant Texas land
