Lyrics

Billy's blue with his head hanging to his shoes
Right the wrong or play a song to ease billy's blues
Billy's down, he was born, he was bound to lose
Right the wrong or play a song to ease billy's blues

Some folks have it good and some folks have it no good
But billy's got it bad, he's so endlessly sad

Billy's blue with his head hangin to his shoes
Somebody please right the wrong or play a song
To ease billy's blues, to ease billy's blues
