Michelle Shocked - The Secret To A Long Life (Is Knowing When It's Time To Go) lyrics

Billy Barlow was a poor boy That's why he robbed the Union Grove Bank He was a sweet talking ladies man That's what he'd have ladies all to think Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go So when the posse came riding Billy went hiding down south Holed up in a shack with Maria With the black hair and the ruby red mouth Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go So when the news reached her lover Billy ran for cover, don't you know And when the bullets started ringing Billy started singing "Time to go..." Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go Ohhhh, time to go now! Billy headed north where the sands of the Badlands blow But in his dreams he's south He's still kissing that ruby red mouth Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go Ohhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhh The secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go The secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go The secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go
