How's bout a song...or part of one

I've taken out the chord notation because it would probably just be boring...I still don't know about the second to last verse either....


About a hundred and forty odd years ago
there was a man alive that everyone knew
and there wasn't a doubt in the world
they could tell he's no good.


he was a bad ass mother fucking son of a bitch
a two timing bastard and a dirty snitch
he would murder his brother as long as he was getting his gold.


This Man, that roamed the west,
A shell, of greed and death,
This Man, that roamed the West,
Kills anything that crosses his path.



Well poor Billy Boy, he crossed his path, and everyone told him he wouldn't last,
They said that the man was pissed and he was looking for him.
Well, Billy wouldn't have none of this, He grabbed his gun with his work-worn fist,
Billy Boy wasn't gonna let go of his girl.


Oh Billy don't you go, You won't come back, oh Don't you know!
A Man like that won't let you get away


A loaded bottle and a loaded gun,
poured out of a barrel and shot through one,
one-twenty proof and a forty-five slug,
these men were out for blood.

(Instrumentle?)

This Man, that roamed the west,
A shell, of greed and death,
This Man, that roamed the West,
Kills anything that crosses his path.



Now it wasn't high noon in the middle of the street,
nah, folks like these don't have that sort of meet,
yeah the man busted in
to catch Billy in his Bed,


But Billy was waiting for him.


Well the man was shot, the deed was done
the girl was got, and the west was won
But now Billy Boy is on the run,
And the Law's got it out for him.
