《Billy Dee》歌词

[00:00:00] Billy Dee (比利迪) - Kris Kristofferson (克里斯·克里斯托佛森)

[00:00:00] Written by：Kris Kristofferson

[00:00:06] Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty one

[00:00:12] Fooling with some foolish things he could've left alone

[00:00:16] But he had to try to satisfy a thirst he couldn't name

[00:00:23] Driven toward the darkness by the devils in his veins

[00:00:30] All around the honky tonks searching for a sign

[00:00:35] Getting by on getting high on women words and wine

[00:00:40] Some folks called him crazy lord and others called him free

[00:00:46] We just called us lucky for the love of Billy Dee

[00:00:55] Busy goin' his own way and speakin' his own words

[00:01:00] Facin' and forgettin' every warnin' that he heard

[00:01:06] Makin' friends and takin' any crazy chance he could

[00:01:11] Getting busted for the bad times and believin' in the good

[00:01:18] Billy took a beatin' from a world he meant no harm

[00:01:24] The score was written in the scars upon his arm

[00:01:29] Some felt he was payin' for the life he tried to lead

[00:01:34] But all we felt was sorry for our good friend Billy Dee

[00:01:46] It may be his soul was bigger than a body's ought to be

[00:01:52] Singing songs and bringin' laughter to the likes of you and me

[00:01:57] 'Cause the world he saw was sadder than the one he hoped to find

[00:02:03] But it wasn't near as lonesome as the one he left behind

[00:02:10] Yesterday they found him on the floor of his hotel

[00:02:15] Reachin' toward the needle lord that drove him down to hell

[00:02:20] Some said it was suicide others blame the speed

[00:02:26] We just called it crucified when Billy Dee OD'd
