Billy Jack

[Verse 1] Just out of Monday Run into a friend Down the street, down the street Of where I live Sad things begin I could feel from within From the message, from the message He had to give 'Bout a buddy of mine Running out of time Somebody past noon, shot across the room And now the man no longer lives Too bad about him Too sad about him Don't get me wrong, the man is gone But it's a wonder he lived this long [Refrain] Up in the city they called him Boss Jack But down home he was an alley cat Didn't care nothing about being black Oh Billy Jack [Verse 2] Can't be no fun (Can't be no fun) To be shot, shot with a hand gun Body sprawled out, you without a doubt Running people out, they're on the floor A bad bloody bloody mess Shot all up in his chest One sided duel, gun and a fool What a way to go [Refrain]
