Dia Frampton - Billy The Kid

Now once upon a time when the West was old

A ma saw her son was a sight to behold

He could shoot his daddy's gun like a straight arrow

He wrestled with the rattlesnakes before he walked

Ya he grew up fast with a hardened grit

And he had the pluck and he had the wit

Ya his mamma called him William till he up and quit

And in these here parts he's known as Billy the Kid

I've had you in my sights my arms for so long

Where did you go I didn't know

I've been around here waiting for so long so long

And I'll wait for you

He was as tough as nails barging in the saloon

Missing an eye gun glowed in the moon

He called out to the crowd "I don't want no fuss

See I'm looking for a runaway who looks like this "

And he slammed the paper down it was covered in dust

But the crowd kept silent sure he looked real tough

But they knew the portrait well and they knew not to

Mess with Billy the Kid and his gang of thugs

I've had you in my sights my arms for so long

Where did you go I didn't know

I've been around here waiting for so long so long

And I'll wait for you

I've had you in my sights my arms for so long

Where did you go I didn't know

I've been around here waiting for so long so long

And I'll wait for you

The sheriff knocked on the door of a pretty girl

Tipped his hat said "We gotta have a look around

We'll give you cash if you tip off the fugitive "

She bit her lip she was in love and acted clueless

He grabbed her arm and said "We heard you been a harborin'

Give him up I give my word I'll keep your name clean "

She steered 'em clear of the cracks in the floorboards and

Said "You'll never find him you'll never find him "

I've had you in my sights my arms for so long

Where did you go I didn't know

I've been around here waiting for so long so long

And I'll wait for you

I've had you in my sights my arms for so long

Where did you go I didn't know

I've been around here waiting for so long so long

And I'll wait for you
