Tribute to Billie Jo
A cold day in December when the world came down the line
About a country legend, a real true friend of mine
People, they were talking, but I sat there, not a sound
When I heard Billie Jo had finally laid the blanket down
Some songs we sang together, yet we both made them our own
Then, we were just two country girls from Texas and Tyrone
I pray to God in Heaven that peace at last she found
When I heard Billie Jo had finally laid the blanket down
The friend I had in Billie Jo, again I'll never find
She sang me that old fashion song and what I've got in mind
That '57 Chevrolet, the blanket on the ground
I cried the day my friend BJ, she laid the blanket down
I'll be forever grateful for my time spent with you, friend
The shows we did, the songs we sang, are sadly at an end
But someday in the Heavens, we'll meet again, I know
And we'll sing blanket on the ground, just me and Billie Joe
The friend I had in Billie Jo, again I'll never find
She sang me that old fashion song and what I've got in mind
That '57 Chevrolet, the blanket on the ground
I cried the day my friend BJ, she laid the blanket down
The friend I had in Billie Jo, again I'll never find
She sang me that old fashion song and what I've got in mind
That '57 Chevrolet, the blanket on the ground
I cried the day my friend BJ, she laid the blanket down
The day my friend Billie Jo, she laid the blanket down
About a country legend, a real true friend of mine
People, they were talking, but I sat there, not a sound
When I heard Billie Jo had finally laid the blanket down
Some songs we sang together, yet we both made them our own
Then, we were just two country girls from Texas and Tyrone
I pray to God in Heaven that peace at last she found
When I heard Billie Jo had finally laid the blanket down
The friend I had in Billie Jo, again I'll never find
She sang me that old fashion song and what I've got in mind
That '57 Chevrolet, the blanket on the ground
I cried the day my friend BJ, she laid the blanket down
I'll be forever grateful for my time spent with you, friend
The shows we did, the songs we sang, are sadly at an end
But someday in the Heavens, we'll meet again, I know
And we'll sing blanket on the ground, just me and Billie Joe
The friend I had in Billie Jo, again I'll never find
She sang me that old fashion song and what I've got in mind
That '57 Chevrolet, the blanket on the ground
I cried the day my friend BJ, she laid the blanket down
The friend I had in Billie Jo, again I'll never find
She sang me that old fashion song and what I've got in mind
That '57 Chevrolet, the blanket on the ground
I cried the day my friend BJ, she laid the blanket down
The day my friend Billie Jo, she laid the blanket down
