Billy, we've come a long ways together
And through it all, you've been just like a brother to me
Billy, we've had our share of ups and downs
Floors are still sleeping on the ground
And the jobs were few and far between
We've been knocking round together
So long as we've had our share of ups and downs
So long, singing the same old songs
And out in the rain
So long, I swear we're shrieking
Billy, lately I have done some thinking
And when I look back on our lives
We sure had ourselves a time
But you know
It's been a while where we traveled
And it's starting to unravel
And it's starting to unravel
And it's starting to unravel
We leave so many loose ends behind
We've been bucked off and kicked so many times
And the ground just keeps getting harder
Billy, you know we're all the same
We're getting there, we're getting there
Oh yeah

Billy, another summer's come and gone
Now with the winter coming on
I know we planned on heading south
But you know, I've thought about it several days
And these words I'm about to say
They don't taste good in my mouth
But there's someone
I know I've thought about

And I look back on
Oh, yes, you still have me
Yes, I'll be saying so long
You go on without me
Oh, easy way of saying goodbye
So be sure
And tell her all the politics
I said hi
