Колибри Билли

hummingbird billy saw red 
said all that he could say 
to take that gold away from them 
and make it come his way 

grabbed that cash and ducked out 
went down the road from where he lucked out 
spent half his heart and got a whole lot 
and now billy got mad clout 

cause we all need something 
to make it through today 
and then again tomorrow 
cause we’re all lost somewhere 
and that where we’ll stay 

newfound friends and old loose ends 
somehow found their way 
there’s no more rest in billy’s nest 
billy, he got to play 

one new life, two new homes 
he got three new shiny cars 
with four girlfriends his mama done said 
billy don’t you play too hard 

but we all need something mama 
to make it through today 
and then again tomorrow 
cause we’re all lost somewhere 
and that where we’ll stay 

humming billy saw red 
and blue flashing lights 
thanks to old friends and new loose ends 
a silver bullet took his life 
you see one of billy’s girlfriends 
didn’t like the other three 
oddly enough she got mad 
and took it out on poor billy 

up in billy heaven 
life’s never been so good 
he got more riches and a lot more [bad word] 
than he ever thought he would
