INSTRUMENTAL
In the pocket of his vest,
a Colt he hid
And his age and his size

took the teller by surprise

And the word spread
of Billy the Kid
Well he nevertraveled heavy

Yes, he always rode alone
And he soon put other

older guns to shame
And the lawjust could not

seem to track him down
INSTRUMENTAL
And thejudge said

String 'l'm up for what he did!
And the cowboys and

their kin like the sea,
came pourin' in to watch

the hangin' of Billy the Kid
And his daring life of crime

Made him a legend in his time

East and West
ofthe Rio Grande
