John Hiatt - Rock Back Billy lyrics
Get a load of that guy With the dew rag on And the cowboy tie Man that cat is gone Form Memphis to Nashville Then way out west Put that Hollywood party To the acid test Got a little bungalow In the valley somewhere Took a gig playing bass With Sonny and Cher He took it on his chin And never got it off his chest He wouldn't be caught dead wearing that vest Not rock back Billy Rock back Billy He came to make a stew With that swamp guitar He kept it lonesome and blue Yeah, in the trunk of his car But no one gave him a long shot Though he never did doubt What it was not Or what it was all about He got all tangled up with liquor and drugs Trying to make a racket Like those English mugs Till he couldn't get arrested And he couldn't see straight He couldn't even shine shoes In that Golden State Not rock back Billy Come on rock back Billy When you see him on the street Well, he's no spring chicken But ask him how he makes ends meet He'll tell you, |
