Billy Bayou Lyrics

(if you know who wrote this, let me know)
INTRO: D A D
Back about 18-hundred and some
A Lousiana couple had a redheaded son
No name suited him, Jim Jack or Joe
So they just called him Billy Bayou
CHORUS:
Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go
You're walkin' on quicksand, walk slow
Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
Billy was a boy kinda big for his size
Red hair, freckles, and big blue eyes
Thirteen years from the day he was born
Billy fought the battle of Little Bighorn
SOLO: D A D
(KEY CHANGE)
SOLO (cont'd): D# A# D#
One sad day Billy cried ho-ho
I can whip the feathers of a Geronimo
He smarted off, the chief got mad
That likely ended our Lousiana lad
CHORUS:
Billy Billy Bayou watch where you go
You're walkin' on quicksand, walk slow
Billy Billy Bayou watch what you say
A pretty girl'll get you one of these days
One day in 1878
A pretty girl walked through Bill's front gate
He didn't know whether to stand there or run
Wound up married 'cause he did neither one
