Like the Kid
11 years ago
General
When misguided public opinion honors what is despicable and despises what is honorable, punishes virtue and rewards vice, encourages what is harmful and discourages what is useful, applauds falsehood and smothers truth under indifference or insult, a nation turns its back on progress and can be restored only by the terrible lessons of catastrophe. – Frederic Bastiat
Billy the Kid Lyrics
Well I heard you in the back room
Your friends had a laugh on me
Passed my name through the cantina
Yeah, your face was hard to read
Something in your demeanor
Should've given you away
But I was desperate for a friend
I was gettin' used to makin' mistakes
Well I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
Yeah, I went down hard
Yeah, but I got up again
I remember you my baby
I remember you so well
And your house out in the suburbs
You had your wishing well
They say be careful who you believe
Be careful who you trust
Did you smile when you pulled the trigger
That dropped me in the dust
Well I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
Yeah, I went down hard
Yeah, but I got up again
Alright
Well, you caught me in the bedroom
Cotton fever in a sweat
I was fighting for recovery
But I wasnt givin' up yet
You offered no assistance
Yeah, you looked at me and you lied
Yeah, oh it really stunned me
When you went to the other side
I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
Yeah, I went down hard
Oh, but I got up again
I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
I went down hard
Oh, but I got up again
I went down hard
Like Billy the Kid
I went down hard
Yeah, I got up again
