Billy the Kid

Henry McCarty (September 17 or November 23, 1859 – July 14, 1881), alias William H. Bonney, better known as Billy the Kid, was an American outlaw and gunfighter of the Old West who is alleged to have killed 21 men before he was shot and killed at the age of 21. He is also known for his involvement in New Mexico's Lincoln County War, during which he allegedly committed three murders. McCarty was orphaned at the age of 15. His first arrest was for stealing food at the age of 16 in 1875. Ten days later, he robbed a Chinese laundry and was arrested again but escaped shortly afterwards. He fled from New Mexico Territory into neighboring Arizona Territory, making himself both an outlaw and a federal fugitive. In 1877, he began to call himself "William H. Bonney".Af… more »

There's a distant horizon
Through the mist in the trees
And it whispers my name
Each night and each day
And I carry that burden with me
In the fields I remember
When these hands were clean
Then I lower my gaze and just get through the day
For I know
It should have been me
Whoah
Let me go
Back to the river I know
Whoah
Let me go
Do you still remember
That it wasn't me
Who was charged with the task
Of all you had asked
And who dragged you and our child to sea
On a day in December
I knew you were gone
But I've felt you my dear with each look in the mirror
And you leave me in peace with each dawn
Whoah
Let me go
Back to the river I know
Whoah
Let me go
Woah
Let me go
It should have been me I know
Woah
Let me go
Mary, I still remember
Mary, I still remember
Mary, I still remember
Yeah
Mary, I
Whoah
Let me go
Back to the river I know
Whoah
Let me go
Woah
Let me go
It should have been me I know
Woah
Let me go
