Well 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 'till one day I up and shot it

 We rode the hard country down the New Mexico line

 He had silver pocket that he never did wind

 He crippled a piano player for playing his favorite song

 No me and Billy the Kid never got along

Yea, me and Billy the Kid never got along

I didn't like the way he buckled his belt and he wore his gun all wrong

He was bad to the bone all hopped up on speed

I would have left 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

No me and Billy the Kid never got along

Yea 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 got this foolproof scheme

We'll rob Wells Fargo it's busting 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

No me and Billy the Kid we never got along

No 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 into the hotel got a room with a shower

We lay and listen to that watch tick hour after hour

Outside I hear the wind going on so strong

No me and Billy the Kid we never got along

We never got along

We never got along

We never got along

Never got along

He'd been in the sun too long

I admit that I framed him but I don't feel no remorse

'Cause I never could forgive him for stealing my old horse
