Billy

It was the midnight hour when the boy broke out of Frisco
Running scared he's moving from the heat
The electric chair was the sentence there
But they didn't take the time or care to see
That it wasn't Billy

They call him public enemy number one
But they can't know what's going on
They call him public enemy number one
But they can't know what's going on

Cruising in a car heading down the main street
To see my girl, she's waiting there for me
The cops are tailing with their sirens wailing
But the one thing they can see is there ain't just Billy, oh no
I'm gonna race this car get away from here
Start a new life, there'll be no more fear for me, no, no, no

They call me public enemy number one
But they won't know what's going on
They call me public enemy number one
But they don't know what's going on with me

I'll tell you, girl, if we make it to the borderline
We will be free just you and me
I swear I will make you mine
`Til the end of our time

(Solo)

Billy's got a gun and he's heading for the border
Moving fast, they're almost in the clear
Police are waiting with an ambush,
Saying there ain't nothing passing here, not even Billy, oh no, no
They're gunning Billy down in the middle of the street
Till him full of lead and his girl begins to scream no no no

They called him public enemy number one
But they don't know what's going on
They called him public enemy number one
But they don't know what's going on

They called him public enemy number one
Gotta shoot to kill cause he's on the run
They called him public enemy number one
They called him Billy, yeah
They called him Billy, yeah
They called him Billy, yeah
They called him Billy, yeah
