Billy Lyrics
Billy went away this evening
There was no letter nothing to say
All he left was a goldfish in a bowl
Sally could not believe the half empty house that was now just hers
Billy must have a black hole for her soul
Billy went away
Billy went away
She cried to her daddy why'd he leave this way
Billy went away
Billy went away
I wish that he'd come home
Sally took hard to drinking
She never got home before three
Sleeping became a thing of the past
She went over every scenario
What did I do to make him go
I always thought we'd be the ones who last
Since he went away
Since he went away
She kept to herself and avoided the day
Since he went away
Since he went away
She wished that he'd come home
Sally went to the cupboard
She knew she left some whiskey there
She pulled down every can from every shelf
In the back she found pictures of Billy
Naked with 43 other women
And the last one was a picture of herself
Billy did stray
Billy did stray
Well no not her she just turned 16 today
Billy did stray
Billy strayed
Some of these pictures were taking in our home
It was almost two months later
Sally heard the telephone ring
She picked it up and said a happy hello

Her tone changed when she heard Billy
Said hey baby I want to come home
She said oh no Billy, oh no
Since you went away
Since you went away
I found your little pictures what you got to say
Since you went away
Since you went away
I slept with your cousin and your best friend Jay
Since you went away
Since you went away
I prayed every day that you'd stay away
Since you went away
Since you went away
I've made myself a home
