Me And Billy The Kid - Live Version
Me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
I didn't like the way he cocked his hat
And he wore his gun all wrong
We had the same girlfriend
And he never forgot it
She had a cute little chihuahua
Til one day he up and shot it
He rode the hard country
Down the New Mexico line
He had a silver pocket watch
That he never did wind
He crippled a piano player
For playing his favorite song
Yeah, me and Billy the Kid
Just never got along
Me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
I didn't like the way he parted his hair
And he wore his gun all wrong
He was bad to the bone
All hopped up on speed
I would've left him alone
If it wasn't for that senorita
He gave her silver
And he paid her hotel bill
But it was me she loved
She said she always will
I'd always go and see her
When Billy was gone
Yeah, me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
Me and Billy the Kid
never got along
I didn't like the way he tied his shoes
And he wore his gun all wrong
One day, I said to Billy:
"I got this foolproof scheme
We'll rob Wells Fargo
It's busting at the seams"
I admit that I framed him
But I don't feel bad
Because the way I was living
Was driving me mad
Billy reached for his gun
But his gun was on wrong
Yeah, me and Billy the Kid
Just never got along
Me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
But I did like the way he swayed in the wind
When I played him his favorite song
Now my baby sings harmony with me
To "La Cucaracha"
She winds her silver pocket watch
And pets her new chihuahua
I moved into the hotel
Got a room with a shower
We lay and listen to that watch tick
Hour after hour
Outside, I hear the wind
Blowing oh so strong
Me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
We never got along
Never got along
I didn't like the way he cocked his hat
And he wore his gun all wrong
We had the same girlfriend
And he never forgot it
She had a cute little chihuahua
Til one day he up and shot it
He rode the hard country
Down the New Mexico line
He had a silver pocket watch
That he never did wind
He crippled a piano player
For playing his favorite song
Yeah, me and Billy the Kid
Just never got along
Me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
I didn't like the way he parted his hair
And he wore his gun all wrong
He was bad to the bone
All hopped up on speed
I would've left him alone
If it wasn't for that senorita
He gave her silver
And he paid her hotel bill
But it was me she loved
She said she always will
I'd always go and see her
When Billy was gone
Yeah, me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
Me and Billy the Kid
never got along
I didn't like the way he tied his shoes
And he wore his gun all wrong
One day, I said to Billy:

Blowing oh so strong
Me and Billy the Kid
Never got along
We never got along
