Billy The Kid Lyrics by Billy Dean

Let Them Be Little

1991

[Verse 1]
Strapped on my holster low across my hips
Two Colt .45's with white plastic grips
And I'd head west through our neighborhood
And they'd say, "Here comes young Billy and he's up to no good"
Yeah
[Verse 2]
I rode a trail through the neighbor's backyard
Shootin' the bad guys through my handlebars
Known for my bravery both far and near
Bein' late for supper was my only fear
[Chorus]
I miss Billy the Kid
The times that he had
The life that he lived
I guess he must've got caught
His innocence lost
I wonder where he is?
I miss Billy the Kid
[Verse 3]
These days I don't know whose side to be on
There's such a thin line between right and wrong
I live and learn, do the best I can
There's only so much you can do as a man
[Chorus]
I miss Billy the Kid
The times that he had
The life that he lived
I guess he must've got caught
His innocence lost
Lord, I wonder where he is?
I miss Billy the Kid
I miss Billy the Kid
The times that he had
The life that he lived
I guess he must've got caught
His innocence lost
Lord, I wonder where he is?
I miss Billy the Kid
