Billy Tyler Songtext
von Chas & Dave

Billy′s lady told him, "Let this be understood
Something better happen soon, things don't look too good
I′m tired of saving pennies, trying to make ends meet
By next Monday afternoon, we're gonna be out on the street."
Billy thought it over and he said with a smile
"Everything will be alright in just a little while
I better get right to it, I'll pack my things and go"
He put on his tennis shoes and walked out into the snow


Oh, Billy Tullard, do you remember what you said?
Don′t your conscience get you when you′re lying in your bed?
Are you feeling sorry for the things that you've done?
Do you feel repentance on the tip of your tongue?
Did you have to grab your things and run?

She received a postcard from south of Ingleway
He said, "I′ve got myself a job and I'm here at White Sand Bay
But I′m sending you some money so that you can eat
Everything will be alright, I'll soon be back on my feet."
But Billy, he was lying to the one who loved him most
He met a well-made lady who lived down by the coast
They spent their days and nights together lying in the nude
But I know he′ll get what he's got coming to him soon


Oh, Billy Tullard, do you remember what you said?
Don't your conscience get you when you′re lying in your bed?
Are you feeling sorry for the things that you′ve done?
Do you feel repentance on the tip of your tongue?
Did you have to grab your things and run?
