While sitting in his cell, doing 7 to 11 His scratching on the wall says"all the dogs will go to heaven" He was pushing his luck but wasn't doing it right That's why he's locked up on a Saturday night Billy was a poor boy, he was brought up by the streets And in school on a recess s he got beat up by the kids In the evening he was hungry, he had nothing to eat And at night he would often, just cry himself to sleep If Every bruise was worth a dollar billy would be rich He would still be walking free if that teller didn't snitch If a nickel was a diamond and shame was paid in gold He'd be laughing pretty hard but that's not what I've been told The neighborhood watch, called him billy the goon He's just helping everyone from the hills down to lagoon Martha took his hard work and a little bit more The night he lost his life Billy even lost his Soul Billy, Billy, he reached for the moon I say, Billy, billy the goon Billy, Billy, he reached for the moon I say, Billy, billy the goon Billy, Billy, he reached for the moon I say, Billy, billy the goon Billy, Billy, he reached for the moon I say, Billy, billy the goon If Every bruise was worth a dollar He would still be walking free If a nickel was a diamond He'd be laughing pretty hard
