Вступление
[Verse 1]
E
Billy left on Friday night with twenty dollars cash
E
Had a thousand more and a diamond on his hand when he got back
A
I don't know just where Billy got that dough
E
Saturday he spent in style
E
Drinks were on the house
E
Lincoln here, and a Jackson there
E
Suspicions were aroused
E
A dime was dropped and a name was named
E
A body soon was found
E
A travelin' Bible salesman on his monthly trip to town
A
Three bullet holes
E
A .38 done took his soul
A
What do you know
B
No diamond ring no money roll
[Verse 2]
A
A quick investigation
A
They dragged Billy to the station
E
And broke him down with the third degree
A
His alibi unraveled
A
Judge Riley banged his gavel
F# B
A 12-man jury all agreed
Bm A
So he must be guilty
[Verse 3]
E
I knew Billy spent that night
E
Winning big at cards
E
And the salesman was a married man
E
Who broke my sisters heart
E
Billy sits in Levenworth
E
Waiting for the gas
E
And I know lots of other things
G
But no one ever asked
A
So they'll never know
E
Swear to God they'll never know
A B
Case is closed, that's how the story will be told
[Outro]
