Текст песни The Ballad Of Billy Christian

If you're listenin', Billy Christian, come on home.

Are you listenin', Billy Christian? If you are, then go on home.
Everything is like you left it. She spends all her time alone
All that music never thrills her like it did when you were there.
Go on home, Billy Christian, if you care.

What a team they were together, Billy Christian and his wife.
People loved to hear them singin'. That was their success in life.
But the eyes of Billy Christian were the wild and wandering kind,
Now Billy's wife sings solo all the time.

Are you listenin', Billy Christian? If you are, then go on home.
Everything is like you left it. She spends all her time alone
All that music never thrills her like it did when you were there.
Go on home, Billy Christian, if you care.

All the fellows tried to date her, but she never blinked an eye.
Every night she sings her same sad song and cries.
Now where is Billy Christian? Does he ever hear the song?
Does Billy Christian know he's welcome home?

Are you listenin', Billy Christian? If you are, then go on home.
Everything is like you left it. She spends all her time alone
All that music never thrills her like it did when you were there.
Go on home, Billy Christian, if you care.

Go on home, Billy Christian, if you care.
