Billy

Bob sets grim tone for
Billy the Kid’s elegy
And for Pat Garrett’s.


Billy 1

Bob tells the story
Of Pat Garrett and Billy,
Once friends, now fighting


Billy 4

He's Billy the Kid,
A saint and a sinner, now
Dying with the West


Billy 7

Bob tells his sad tale
Of Billy and Pat, his friend.
They killed each other.

Help Me Make It Through the Night

Our singer needs help
Making it through the night. Damn --
He'll take anyone.
