Billy Brown (acoustic)

Oh, Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life

Two kids, a dog, and then the cautionary wife

But while it was all going accordingly to plan

Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man

He met his lover almost every single day

Making excuses for his dodgy holiday

On some religion that he said he newly found

They didn't know that his faith was earthly bound

Brown, oh, Billy Brown

Don't let the stars get you down

Don't let the waves let you drown

Brown, oh, Billy Brown

Gonna pick you up like a paper cup

Gonna shake the water out of every nook

Oh, Billy Brown

Oh, Billy Brown needed a place, somewhere to go

He found an island off the coast of Mexico

Leaving his lover and his family behind

Oh, Billy Brown needed to find some peace of mind

And on his journey and his travels on the way

He met a girlie who was brave enough to say

When they made love he shared the burden of his mind

Oh, Billy Brown you are a victim of the times

Brown, oh, Billy Brown

Don't let the stars get you down

Don't let the waves let you drown

Brown, oh, Billy Brown

Gonna pick you up like a paper cup

Gonna shake the water out of every nook

Oh, Billy Brown

Brown, oh, Billy Brown

Gonna pick you up like a paper cup

Gonna shake the water out of every nook

Oh, Billy Brown

Oh, Billy Brown had lived an ordinary life

Two kids, a dog, and then the cautionary wife

While it was all going accordingly to plan

Then Billy Brown fell in love with another man
