Billy 1

There's guns across the river aiming at you
Lawman on your trail he like to catch you
Bounty hunters too, they like to get you
Billy, they don't like you to be so free.

Camping out all night on la beranda
Deeling cards 'til dawn in the hacienda
Up to Boot Hill they'd like to send you
Billy, don't you turn your back on me.

Playing around with some sweet signorita
Into her dark hallway she will lead you
Through the shadows of the maizes she will greet you
Bill, you're so far away from home.



Knockin' On Heaven's Door
Released live on Before The Flood - At Budokan - Dylan & Dead - Unplugged

Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
I feel like I'm knockin' on heavens door.

Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is comin' down
I feel like I'm knockin' on heavens door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.

There's guns across the river about to pound you
There's a lawman on your trail like to surround you
Bounty hunters are dancing all around you
Billy, they don't like you to be so free.

Camping out all night on the veranda
Walking in the streets down by the hacienda
Up to Boot Hill the like to send you
Billy, don't you turn your back on me.

There's mills inside the minds of crazy faces
Bullet holes and rifles in their cases
There is always one more notch in four more aces
Billy, and you're playing all alone.

Playing around with some sweet signorita
Into her dark chamber she will greet you
In the shadows of the maizes she will lead you
Billy, and you're going all alone.

They say that Pat Garrett's got your number
So sleep with one eye open, when you wander
Every little sound just might be thunder
Thunder from the barrel of his gun.

There's always another stranger sneaking glances
Some trigger-happy fool willing to take chances
Some old whore from San Pedro'll make advances
Advances on your spirit and your soul.

The businessmen from Taos want you to go down
So they've hired mister Garrett, he'll force you to slow down
Billy, don't let it make you feel so low down
To be hunted by the man who was your friend.

So hang on to your woman, if you got one
Remember in El Paso once you shot one
I'll be in Santa Fe about one
Billy, you've been running for so long.

Gypsy queens will play your grand finale
Way down in some Tularosa alley
Maybe in La Rio Pecas valley
Billy, you're so far away from home
Billy, you're so far away from home

Spend the night with some sweet signorita
Into her dark hallway she will lead you
In some lonesome shadow she might greet you
Billy, you're so doggone far away from home.

They say that Pat Garrett's got your number
Sleep with one eye open, when you wander
Every little sound just might be thunder
Thunder from the barrel of his gun.

Maybe you will find yourself tomorrow
Drinking in some bar to hide your sorrow
Spending the time that your borrow
Figuring a way to get back home.
