《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：K. Kristofferson

[00:00:11] Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty-one

[00:00:16] Fooling with some foolish things he could've left alone

[00:00:21] But he had to try to satisfy a thirst he couldn't name

[00:00:27] Driven towards the darkness by the devil in his veins

[00:00:34] All around the honky tonks searching for a sign

[00:00:39] Gettin' by on gettin' high on women words and wine

[00:00:44] Some folks called him crazy Lord and others called him free

[00:00:50] But we just called us lucky for the love of Billy Dee

[00:01:53] It may be his soul was bigger than a body's oughta be

[00:01:59] Singin' songs and bringin' laughter to the likes of you and me

[00:02:04] Cause the world he saw was sadder than the one he hoped to find

[00:02:10] But it wasn't near as lonesome as the one he left behind

[00:02:17] Yesterday they found him on the floor of his hotel

[00:02:22] Reachin' towards the needle Lord that drove him down to hell

[00:02:27] Some folks called it suicide others blame the speed

[00:02:33] But we all called it crucified when Billy Dee O D 'd
