[Verse 1]
A young boy named Billy Joe
Restless on the farm
A boy filled with wanderlust
Who never really meant no harm
He'll change his clothes and shine his boots
And he combed his dark hair down
But his mama cried as he walked away
[Chorus]
Don't take your guns to town
Don't take your guns to town
Don't take your guns to town
[Verse 2]
He laughed and kissed his mom and said
"Your Billy Joe is the man
I can shoot as quick, I can shoot as straight
As anybody can
But I wouldn't shoot without a cause
I'd gun nobody down"
But she cried again as he rode away
[Chorus]
Don't take your guns to town, son
Leave your guns at home
Don't take your guns to town
A young boy named Billy Joe
Restless on the farm
A boy filled with wanderlust
Who never really meant no harm
He'll change his clothes and shine his boots
And he combed his dark hair down
But his mama cried as he walked away
[Chorus]
Don't take your guns to town
Don't take your guns to town
Don't take your guns to town
[Verse 2]
He laughed and kissed his mom and said
"Your Billy Joe is the man
I can shoot as quick, I can shoot as straight
As anybody can
But I wouldn't shoot without a cause
I'd gun nobody down"
But she cried again as he rode away
[Chorus]
Don't take your guns to town, son
Leave your guns at home
Don't take your guns to town
