The snowstorm blankets cinncinnati.

A black crow flies straight to my window

He looks me in the eye and tells me,

The price for this will bring you sorrow.

Billy joe, I cast a shadow, from the darkness in my soul,

Billy joe, I lost control, the little girl who can't say no.

The bus pulls in another city,

Wake up and don't know where we are.

Four months without a loving shoulder.

At night I cannot fight the loving you start.

Billy joe, I cast a shadow, from the darkness in my soul,

Billy joe, I lost control, it was just a passing whimsical

Billy joe, billy joe, billy joe

Billy joe, billy joe, billy joe

The price for this will bring you sorrow

Billy joe, I cast a shadow, from the darkness in my soul,

Billy joe, you think you know - once burned twice sociological,

Billy joe, don't be cold, my mistakes are no worse than yours,

Billy joe, this lonely road, conjures up the inner ghosts,

Billy joe, I let you go, spread my legs to ease this woe,

Billy joe, it was just a moment, don't you see that I am yours.

Billy joe, billy joe, billy joe.
