"Billy's Blues"
Billy's blue with his head hanging to his shoes.
Right the wrong or play a song to ease Billy's blues.
Billy's down, he was born, he was bound to lose.
Right the wrong or play a song to ease Billy's blues.
Some folks have it good and some folks have it no good
but Billy's got it bad, he's so endlessly sad.
Billy's blue with his head hangin to his shoes.
Somebody please right the wrong or play a song
to ease Billy's blues, to ease Billy's blues.
