The Ballad Of Danny Bailey 

Some punk with a shotgun killed young Danny Bailey 

In cold blood, in the lobby of a downtown motel 

Killed him in anger, a force he couldn't handle 

Helped pull the trigger that cut short his life 

And there's not many knew him the way that we did 

Sure enough he was a wild one, but then aren't most hungry kids 

Now it's all over Danny Bailey 

And the harvest is in 

Dillinger's dead 

I guess the cops won again 

Now it's all over Danny Bailey 

And the harvest is in

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

We're running short of heroes back up here in the hills 

Without Danny Bailey we're gonna have to break up our stills 

So mark his grave well `cause Kentucky loved him 

Born and raised a proper, I guess life just bugged him 

And he found faith in danger, a lifestyle he lived by 

A running gun youngster in a sad restless age
