G5 C5
Oh Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life
G5 C5
Two kids, a dog, and a cautionary wife
G5 C5
While it was all going according to plan
G5 D5 G5
Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man
G5 C5
He met his lover almost every single day
G5 C5
Making excuses through his dodly holiday
G5 C5
Unto religion that he said and duty found
G5 D5 G5
They didn't know that his faith was earthlic bound
Refrão:
G5 C5
Brown, Oh Billy Brown
A5 D5
Don't let the stars get you down
A5 D5
Don't let the waves let you drown
G5 C5
Brown, Oh Billy Brown
A5 D5
Gonna pick you up like a paper cup
A5 D5
Gonna shake the water out of every nook
C5 D5
Oh Billy Brown
Verso:
G5 C5
Oh Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go
G5 C5
He found an island off the coast of Mexico
G5 C5
Leaving his lover and his family behind
G5 D5 G5
Oh Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind
G5 C5
And on his journey and his travels on the way
G5 C5
He met a girlie who was brave enough to say
G5 C5
When they made love he shared the burden of his mind
G5 D5 G5
Oh Billy Brown you are a victim of the times
Refrão:
G5 C5
Brown, Oh Billy Brown
A5 D5
Don't let the stars get you down
A5 D5
Don't let the waves let you drown
G5 C5
Brown, Oh Billy Brown
A5 D5
Gonna pick you up like a paper cup
A5 D5
Gonna shake the water out of every nook
C5 D5
Oh Billy Brown.
