Get a load of that guy With the dew rag on And the cowboy tie Man that cat is goneForm Memphis to Nashville Then way out west Put that Hollywood party To the acid testGot a little bungalow In the valley somewhere Took a gig playin' bass With Sonny and CherHe took it on his chin And never got it off his chest He wouldn't be caught Dead wearin' that vestNot rock back Billy Oh, rock back BillyHe came to make a stew With that swamp guitar He kept it lonesome and blue Yeah, in the trunk of his carBut no one gave him a long shot Though he never did doubt What it was not Or what it was all about?He got all tangled up With liquor and drugs Tryin' to make a racket Like those English mugsTill he couldn't get arrested And he couldn't see straight He couldn't even shine shoes In that Golden StateNot rock back Billy Come on rock back BillyWhen you see him on the street Well, he's no spring chicken But ask him how he makes ends meet He'll tell you, "I'm still pickin'"Aw, rock it, Billy, rock itYeah, they counted him down When they dropped that beat But that red hot sound They could not defeatIt started comin' back from Boston From East L.A. Down in Austin, Texas And up New York wayAnd as long as there's a kid In a room somewhere With a beat up guitar And some funny lookin' hairWell, it might be Billy's kid You don't know And all I've got to say is Go, cat, goCome on rock back Billy Come on rock back Billy Rock back BillyCome on rock back Billy Come on rock back Billy Come on rock back Billy
