At a roadside bar Billy argued with a young man
A G D
And he settled that argument with a razor in his hand
A G D
With blood on his shirt back to Mary he did run
A G D
She sighed, "Billy, oh Billy, what have you done?"

A G D
He ran to his ma's trailer but the lights were dim
A G D
He pounded on the door, she wouldn't let him in
A G D
Up the road to a neighbor's house he drew near
A G D
They said, "Billy go away. We don't want no trouble round here."

Pocketful of pills and his brain on overload

Wrapped himself round a telephone pole way out on 101

A G D
Well Billy got cut out by the highway patrol
A G D
Just lay there with the cars passing on slow
A G D
Sheriff told Billy's ma that Billy died

She buried his body by the riverside, alright
