It's tragic
No one never really knew Billy Boy
He was quiet
He never really used to talk to anyone
Oh Billy
He was born to be an unwanted son
Always lonely
No, no one used to care about him at all

But Billy's got a gun
Billy's got a gun
He's waving and pointint
And bragging and posing
But Billy
What have you done

It's tragic
Billy never gotto know this thing called love
His mom was drinking
And his dad was never home
Oh Billy
Life can be hard for some
Some are lucky
And some put their luck into the gun

Billy's got a gun
Billy's got a gun
He's waving and pointing
And bragging and posing
But Billy
What have you done

Billy's got a gun
Billy's got a gun
He's waving and pointing
And bragging and posing
But Billy
What have you done
Billy

Oh Billy
It ain't easy being
Billy
Everyone teasing you
Billy's got a gun
Billy's got a gun
He's waving and pointing
And bragging and posing
But Billy
What have you done

Billy's got a gun
Billy's got a gun
He's waving and pointing
And bragging and posing
But Billy
Shout everyone
