Ely Joe Me And Billy The Kid Lyrics

Me And Billy The Kid Lyrics

Me and Billy the Kid never got along



I didn't like the way he cocked his hat



and he wore his gun all wrong.



We had the same girlfriend



and he never forgot it



She had a cute little Chihuahua



until one day he up and shot it



He rode the hard country down the New Mexico line



He had a silver pocketwatch that he never did wind.



He crippled the piano player



for playin' his favorite song



No, Me and Billy the Kid never got along











Me and Billy the Kid never got along



I didn't like the way he parted his hair



and he wore his gun all wrong



He was bad to the bone



All hopped up on speed.



I would've left him alone



If it wasn't for that Senorita



He gave her silver and he paid her hotel bill



But it was me she loved and she said she always will.



I'd always go and see her



when Billy was gone



Yeah, Me and Billy the Kid never got along











Me and Billy the Kid never got along



I didn't like the way he tied his shoes



and he wore his gun all wrong



One day I said to Billy



"I've got this foolproof scheme"



We'll rob Wells Fargo



"It's bustin at the seams."



I admit that I framed him but I don't feel bad



Cause the way I was livin' was drivin' me mad



Billy reached for his gun



but his gun was on wrong



Yeah, Me and Billy the Kid never got along











Me and Billy the Kid never got along



But I did like the way he swayed in the wind



While I played him his favorite song



Now my baby sings harmony with me



To "La Cucaracha"



She winds her silver pocket watch



And pets her new Chihuahua



I moved in to the Hotel and got a room with a shower



We lay and listen to that watch tick hour after hour



Outside I hear the wind



blowin' o so strong



Me and Billy the Kid never got along
