Billy 1 Bob Dylan

[Verse 1]
There’s guns across the river aimin’ at ya
Lawman on your trail, he’d like to catch ya
Bounty hunters, too, they’d like to get ya
Billy, they don’t like you to be so free

[Verse 2]
Campin’ out all night on the veranda
Dealing’ cards ’till dawn in the hacienda
Up to Boot Hill they’d like to send ya
Billy, don’t you turn your back on me

[Verse 3]
Playing’ around with some sweet señorita
Into her dark hallway she will lead ya
To the shadows of the mesas she will greet ya
Billy, you’re so far away from home

[Verse 4]
There’s eyes behind the mirrors in empty places
Bullet holes and scars between the spaces
There’s always one more notch and ten more paces
Billy, and you’re walkin’ all alone

[Verse 5]
They say that Pat Garrett’s got your number
So sleep with one eye open when you slumber
Every little sound just might be thunder
Thunder from the barrel of his gun
