Lyrics Ballad of Billy Jo McKay (Live) - Shawn Mullins
My
names
billy
jo
mckay
I
just
turned
16
yesterday
Im
gonna
get
the
nerve
one
day
To
get
outta
here
My
ma
passed
on
3 years
ago
they
said
It
was
cancer
and
it
took
her
slow
And
ever
since
then
i've
been
Sayin
no
to
my
daddy
and
my
tears
Now
when
you
come
down
our
road
You
gotta
watch
the
bump
Right
there
across
from
The
garbage
dump
You
can
find
me
outback
Jumpin
on
the
trampoline
And
in
the
springtime
We'll
be
skippin
school
We
sneak
off
To
the
cantralls
swimming
pool
Man
you
cant
get
much
cooler
Than
me
and
my
friend
darlene
Now
my
grandaddys
hands
are
worn
From
50
years
of
growin
corn
Back
behind
the
house
where
I
was
born
before
he
had
to
sell
And
my
cousin
eddie
He
got
shot
in
a
walmart
parkin
lot
This
little
towns
changed
alot
He
said
it
hurt
like
hell
My
names
billy
jo
mckay
Its
a
hot
mississippi
summer
saturday
Daddys
on
the
front
porch
With
uncle
dave
drinkin
dixie
beer
16
years
of
bein
bored
My
windows
open
forget
the
door
Hope
theres
some
gas
in
the
Old
mans
ford
cause
im
outta
here
Im
outta
here
im
outta
here
Maybe
i'll
go
down
to
biloxi
Or
maybe
to
new
orleans
Or
maybe
hotlanta
