《The Story Of Billy Bardell》歌词

[00:00:00] The Story Of Billy Bardell - Sheb Wooley

[00:00:06] Billy Bardell was a hard ridin' stranger

[00:00:09] That came to the cow camp that day

[00:00:12] The glint of the sun on his low hangin' gun

[00:00:15] Told a tale of a man on the run

[00:00:20] Run Billy run Billy run Billy run Billy run

[00:00:24] Run Billy run

[00:00:26] For as you live you will die you will die by the gun

[00:00:35] Said his horse had give out

[00:00:36] And he'd liked a fresh mount

[00:00:38] Any price that we'd ask he would pay

[00:00:41] So we bade him get down throw his pack on the ground

[00:00:44] And we'd soon have him back on his way

[00:00:50] As he slowly got down he fell to the ground

[00:00:53] And his face was so pallid and pale

[00:00:56] Said I've run out of luck I got shot in the gut

[00:00:59] And the posse is hot on my trail

[00:01:04] Run Billy run Billy run Billy run Billy run

[00:01:09] Run Billy run

[00:01:10] For as you live you will die you will die by the gun

[00:01:19] Then a poster he showed told the reason he rode

[00:01:22] One thousand in cash was the price

[00:01:25] This poor skinny kid had a price on his head

[00:01:28] And the poster read dead or alive

[00:01:34] In the story he told how his mother was old

[00:01:38] And her eyesight was fast growin' dim

[00:01:41] He asked us to claim the reward in her name

[00:01:44] And not tell her it was for him

[00:01:49] Run Billy run Billy run Billy run Billy run

[00:01:53] Run Billy run

[00:01:55] For as you live you will die you will die by the gun

[00:02:04] Then from the distance the poundin' of hoofbeats

[00:02:07] There came the posse in sight

[00:02:11] Billy Bardell as he looked toward heaven

[00:02:14] Said I'll ride a new range tonight

[00:02:20] Run Billy run Billy run Billy run Billy run

[00:02:24] Run Billy run

[00:02:26] For as you live you will die you will die by the gun
