Billy Lyrics - Keith Urban

Billy left on Friday night with twenty dollars cash 

Had a thousand more and a diamond on his hand 

When he got back 

I don't know just where Billy got that dough. 

Saturday he spent in style 

Drinks were on the house 

Lincoln here, and a Jackson there 

Suspicions were aroused. 

A dime was dropped and a name was named 

A body soon was found 

A travelin' Bilble salesman 

On his monthly trip to town. 

Three bullet holes 

A .38 done took his soul 

What do you know 

No diamond ring, no money roll.

A quick investigation 

They dragged Billy to the station 

And broke him down with the third degree 

His alibi unraveled 

Judge Riley banged his gavel 

A 12-man jury all agreed 

So he must be guilty. 

I knew Billy spent that night 

Winning big at cards 

And the salesman was a married man 

Who broke my sisters heart. 

Billy sits in Levenworth 

Waiting for the gas 

And I know lots of other things 

But no one ever asked.

So they'll never know 

Swear to God they'll never know 

Case is closed, that's how 

The story will be told...
