Billy and Bonnie Lyrics
Billy was seventeen mean as hell
Bonnie said she was thirty it was hard to tell
Now Billy met Bonnie on a saturday night
At the dirt track races it was love at first sight
Now Bonnie was wilder than the west wind blows
Taught Billy every single thing he knows
But she never told Billy what she left out the part about the trouble when the time runs out
When the thrill is gone and your deal goes south
Looks all over when your time runs out
Well Bonnie said Billy don't you think it's time
We moved on a little further down the line
So they knock off a Texico south of town
Blew down the highway with the ragtop down
Now Billy woke Bonnie up about daylight
said you drive honey I've been up all night
Now Billy wasn't sweating no APB
Cause he didn't leave a single soul alive to see
He was just sixteen made his mama proud
That don't mean nothing when your time runs out
Now Bonnie kept on pushing that cadillac
Billy passed out with the seat reared back
They slipped through Louisiana at just pass dark
Bonnie pulled over in a roadside park
She looked at Billy sleeping then she called the cops
He never knew nothin' when the dime was dropped
Now Bonnie knew what she had to do
She called the Sherrif and she cried on cue
And the state police roused Billy out
He was dreaming about Bonnie when the time run out
Well the Sherrif told Billy boy your bound to die cause this young lady's gonna testify
That you done took her off against her will
And she told us about the robbery and the boy you killed
Now the judge said Billy what you got to say before I have the Sherrif carry you away
Now Billy looked Bonnie right in the eye
But he didn't even have to ask her why
But he turned around when they let him out he said I'll see you down in hell when your time runs out
Bonnie said she was thirty it was hard to tell
Now Billy met Bonnie on a saturday night
At the dirt track races it was love at first sight
Now Bonnie was wilder than the west wind blows
Taught Billy every single thing he knows
But she never told Billy what she left out the part about the trouble when the time runs out
When the thrill is gone and your deal goes south
Looks all over when your time runs out
Well Bonnie said Billy don't you think it's time
We moved on a little further down the line
So they knock off a Texico south of town
Blew down the highway with the ragtop down
Now Billy woke Bonnie up about daylight
said you drive honey I've been up all night
Now Billy wasn't sweating no APB
Cause he didn't leave a single soul alive to see
He was just sixteen made his mama proud
That don't mean nothing when your time runs out
Now Bonnie kept on pushing that cadillac
Billy passed out with the seat reared back
They slipped through Louisiana at just pass dark
Bonnie pulled over in a roadside park
She looked at Billy sleeping then she called the cops
He never knew nothin' when the dime was dropped
Now Bonnie knew what she had to do
She called the Sherrif and she cried on cue
And the state police roused Billy out
