The Ballad of Wild Bill
Wild Bill Was A Wild One,
And He Loved A Pretty Young Philly Named Josephine,
But One Night In A Snow Storm,
Bill Didn't Come Home,
And That Was The Last Time He Would Be Seen,
He Use To Sing Her Sweet Love Songs Of Christmas,
They Walked Hand And Hand Through The Fields,
And One Time He Picked Her A Dozen Camellias,
Said I Love You For Ever My Sweet Josephine,
Camellias For Christmas,
She Cried More Tears Than Stars Up In The Sky,
She Waited There Night After Night,
Praying Someday She Might See Him Again,
Now Year After Year,
And Tear After Tear,
She Just Couldn't Give Up On Bill,
But Her Father Was Certain That He'd Never Come Back,
Demanded She'd Marry Some Boy Named Badgewell,
Well At Church It Was Fatal With All Sorts Of Family,
They Were So Happy For Her,
But She Cried Tears Of Sorrow,
She Prayed That She Could Go Far Far Away With Her True Love Bill,
Camellias For Christmas,
She Cried More Tears Than Stars Up In The Sky,
She Waited There Night After Night,
Praying Someday She Might See Him Again,
And That's When It Happened,
She Heard His Horse Whinnying,
She Heard His Sweet Love Song Again,
Camellias Started Falling,
Clean Out Of The Blue Sky,
And There Before Her Green Eyes Was Bill's Texas Grin,
Camellias For Christmas,
Bill Rode That Old Horse Straight Down A Lighting Bolt,
He Told Her That He'd Come Home,
As He Swept Her Up Into His Arms,
Rode Off To The Stars,
Wild Bill Was A Wild One,
And He Loved A Pretty Young Philly Named Josephine
And He Loved A Pretty Young Philly Named Josephine,
But One Night In A Snow Storm,
Bill Didn't Come Home,
And That Was The Last Time He Would Be Seen,
He Use To Sing Her Sweet Love Songs Of Christmas,
They Walked Hand And Hand Through The Fields,
And One Time He Picked Her A Dozen Camellias,
Said I Love You For Ever My Sweet Josephine,
Camellias For Christmas,
She Cried More Tears Than Stars Up In The Sky,
She Waited There Night After Night,
Praying Someday She Might See Him Again,
Now Year After Year,
And Tear After Tear,
She Just Couldn't Give Up On Bill,
But Her Father Was Certain That He'd Never Come Back,
Demanded She'd Marry Some Boy Named Badgewell,
Well At Church It Was Fatal With All Sorts Of Family,
They Were So Happy For Her,
But She Cried Tears Of Sorrow,
She Prayed That She Could Go Far Far Away With Her True Love Bill,
Camellias For Christmas,
She Cried More Tears Than Stars Up In The Sky,
She Waited There Night After Night,
Praying Someday She Might See Him Again,
And That's When It Happened,
She Heard His Horse Whinnying,
She Heard His Sweet Love Song Again,
Camellias Started Falling,
Clean Out Of The Blue Sky,
And There Before Her Green Eyes Was Bill's Texas Grin,
Camellias For Christmas,
Bill Rode That Old Horse Straight Down A Lighting Bolt,
He Told Her That He'd Come Home,
As He Swept Her Up Into His Arms,
Rode Off To The Stars,
Wild Bill Was A Wild One,
And He Loved A Pretty Young Philly Named Josephine
