Billy Bayou Lyrics

Back about eighteen hundred and some a Louisiana couple had a red headed son

No name soothe him Jim Jack or Joe they just called him Billy Bayou



Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go you're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say a pretty girl'll get you one of these days



Billy was a boy kinda big for a size red hair and freckles and big blue eyes

Thirteen years from the day he was born Bill fought the battle of the Little Big Horn



Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go you're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say a pretty girl'll get you one of these days



One sad day Billy cried hoho I can whip the feathers of Geronimo

He smarted off the chief got mad this nearly ended our Louisiana lad



Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go you're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say a pretty girl'll get you one of these days



One day in 1878 a pretty girl walked through Billy's front gate

He didn't know whether to stand there or run

He would up married cause he did neighter one



Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go you're walkin' on quick sand and walk slow

Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say a pretty girl'll get you one of these days

A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
