Song Lyrics

Billy the kid I understand you
It really ain`t your fault that the west is so wild
Billy the kid cain`t reprimand you
You must have been deprived when you was a child

Whoopee ti yi yipee yipee, shoot `em in the belly Billy
Ti yi yipee yipee, shoot `em in the head
Ti yi yipee yipee, saw you on the telly Billy
Late late showdown - down dead

You`re headed for the last round up
Your corral`s OK
But your morale`s in a sad bad way

Billy the kid, you should have been a good guy
If you had had the proper guidance from your dad
Billy the kid, nobody should die
Environmental circumstances made you go bad

Whoopee ti yi yipee yipee, shoot `em in the belly Billy
Ti yi yipee yipee, Billy give `em hell
Ti yi yipee yipee, saw you on the telly Billy
Farewell welfare, farewell

Now you`ll be a swingin` from the top of a tree
You`re being punished with a capitol P
Oh me
