《The Ballad Of Billy The Kid(Live at Shea Stadium， Queens， NY - July 2008)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Ballad Of Billy The Kid - Billy Joel

[00:01:05] From a town known as Wheeling West Virginia

[00:01:10] Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand

[00:01:16] And his daring life of crime

[00:01:18] Made him a legend in his time

[00:01:21] East and West of the Rio Grande

[00:01:35] Well he started with a bank in Colorado

[00:01:41] In the pocket of his vest a Colt he hid

[00:01:46] And his age and his size

[00:01:48] Took the teller by surprise

[00:01:52] And the word spread of Billy the Kid

[00:02:00] Well he never travelled heavy

[00:02:02] Yes he always rode alone

[00:02:05] And he soon put many older guns to shame

[00:02:11] Well he never had a sweetheart

[00:02:13] And he never had a home

[00:02:16] But the cowboys and the ranchers knew his name

[00:02:21] Well he robbed his way from Utah to Oklahoma

[00:02:27] And the law just could not seem to track him down

[00:02:32] And it served his legend well

[00:02:34] For the folks they love to tell

[00:02:37] 'Bout when Billy the Kid came to town

[00:03:37] One cold day a posse captured Billy

[00:03:42] And the judge said "String 'im up for what he did "

[00:03:47] And the cowboys and their kin

[00:03:50] Like the sea came pourin' in

[00:03:52] To watch the hangin' of Billy the Kid

[00:04:01] Well he never travelled heavy

[00:04:03] Yes he always rode alone

[00:04:06] And he soon put many older guns to shame

[00:04:12] Well he never had a sweetheart

[00:04:14] Tho' he finally found a home

[00:04:17] Underneath the Boot Hill grave that bears his name

[00:04:22] From a town known as Oyster Bay Long Island

[00:04:28] Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand

[00:04:34] And his daring life of crime

[00:04:36] Made him a legend in his time

[00:04:39] East and West of the Rio Grande
