Lyrics:
The Favor by Dan Johnson
Billy was a quiet one, preacher's son,
Hair black as midnight,
Eyes like the moon.
Jenny was a sweet thing.He swore
Down by deep water where sweet lily stand
I saw pretty Polly wringing her hands
The song that she sang made the whole grove to ring
My Billy has
dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way"
"He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge"
"And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin'
them shoot through you
Wild Billy was a crazy cat
And he shook some dust out of his coon skin cap
He said try some of this it'll show you where
dust out of his coonskin cap
He said, "trust some of this, it'll show you where it's at
Or at least it'll really help you feel it"
By the time we
would'a left him alone if it weren't for that sinorita, but he gave
Her silver and he paid her hotle bills. It was knew that she loved him she said

(Traditional British Folk Song)
VERSE 1:Billy Taylor was a sailor, he was courtin' a fair ladyInstead of Billy gettin' married, he
The next town is 125 miles away
And these very words came into his mind. He said
By the time I get to Phoenix, she'll be rising
Oh, and she'll find
vicinity
Back to my man Big Ill, he got the remedy
For the
If you don't want her don't waste her time
(Looked her up and down, said, "Hmm I'll take
Choctaw Ridge
Today Billie Joe Macallister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
Papa said to Mama as he passed around the blackeyed peas
"Well, Billy
and headed down the railroad track
Told Billy you better be gone from here by the time that I get back
Stagger Lee he went on home and he loaded his forty-four
, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life""
""Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife""
And as he started to go she said ""Billy
be a hero don't be a fool with your life
Billy don't be a hero come back and make me your wife
And as he started to go she said Billy keep your head
latter Billy's hospitalised,
"Tell the wife to bring some cans in
With the grapes"
He cries.
But she's seen the light,
She said:
"Serve the fat slob right,
dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way"
"He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge"
"And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin'
them shoot through you
Wild Billy was a crazy cat
And he shook some dust out of his coon skin cap
He said try some of this it'll show you where
Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life
Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife
And as he started to go she said, Billy
Ooohh
Shawty crunk on the floor wide open
Skeet so much they call her Billy Ocean
Roll like an 18 wheeler
That ho fine, but this ho killer
Ho's
& he's gonna smack the wife in the jaw
Billy Mrs cleans and scrubs while Billy's down the boozer
But she's had a belly full now Billy's gonna lose her
Come back to me"
I heard his fiancée got a letter
That told how Billy died that day
The letter said that he was a hero
She should be proud he died
to Stagger Lee, she's starting to flirt
Oh, with Stagger Lee
She saw the barkeep, said, "Oh God, he can't be dead!"
Stag said, "Well, just count the holes
to Stagger Lee, she's starting to flirt
Oh, with Stagger Lee
She saw the barkeep, said, "Oh God, he can't be dead!"
Stag said, "Well, just count the holes
Ridge"
"Today Billy Joe Mac Allister
Jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
Papa said to Mama as he passed
Around the black eyed peas
"Well, Billy Joe never

It was driving me crazy
I said to my mom
I said "Hey, mom, what's up with all the sauerkraut?"
And my dear, sweet mother
