Billy The Kid Lyrics by Tom Petty

Billy The Kid Lyrics

    Well i heard you in the back room
    Your friends had a laugh on me
    Passed my name through the cantina
    Yeah your face was hard to read
    Something in your demeanor
    Should of given you away
    But i was desperate for a friend
    I was getting used to making mistakes

    Well i went down hard
    Like billy the kid
    Yeah, i went down hard
    Yeah, but i got up again

    I remember you my baby
    I remember you so well
    And your house out in the suburbs
    You had your wishing well
    They say be careful who you believe
    Be careful who you trust
    Did you smile when you pulled the trigger
    That dropped me in the dust

    Well, i went down hard
    Like billy the kid
    Yeah, i went down hard
    Yeah, but i got up again

    Well, you caught me in the bedroom
    Cotton fever in a sweat
    I was fighting for recovery
    But i wasn't giving up yet
    You offered no assistance
    Yeah, you looked at me and you lied
    Oh it really stunned me
    When you went to the other side

    I went down hard
    Like billy the kid
    Yeah, i went down hard
    Oh, but i got up again
