《The Ballad of Billy the Kid(Live in Moscow & Leningrad， Russia - July/August 1987)》歌词

[00:00:00] Billy the Kid - Billy Joel

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

[00:01:11] Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand

[00:01:17] And his daring life of crime

[00:01:19] Made him a legend in his time

[00:01:22] East and West of the Rio Grande

[00:01:36] 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 took the teller by surprise

[00:01:51] And word spread of Billy the Kid

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

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

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

[00:02:10] And he never had a sweetheart

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

[00:02:15] But the cowboy and the rancher knew his name

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

[00:02:26] And the law just could not seem to track him down

[00:02:31] And it served his legend well

[00:02:34] For the folks they'd love to tell 'bout when Billy the Kid came to town

[00:03:34] Well one cold day a posse captured Billy

[00:03:39] And the judge said "String 'im up for what he did "

[00:03:45] And the cowboys and their kin like the sea

[00:03:48] Came pourin' in to watch the hangin' of Billy the Kid

[00:03:58] Well he never traveled heavy

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

[00:04:03] And he soon put other older guns to shame

[00:04:08] And he never had a sweetheart

[00:04:10] But he finally found a home

[00:04:13] Underneath the boot hill grave that bears his name

[00:04:19] From a town known as Oyster Bay Long Island

[00:04:24] Rode a boy with a six-pack in his hand

[00:04:30] And his daring life of crime

[00:04:32] Made him a legend in his time

[00:04:34] East and West of the Rio Grande
