Letra Billy Goat de Tony Rich original

(this is a song about Billy Goat, a young man who never knew what he wanted. Check it out, you see Billy wanted every woman in the world and didn't want to give anything in the world. He tried his best to swing, you know, but it didn't work. so you gotta be down for the right thing.)

Billy Goat moved over to the east coast
He never knew his name but he'd always get what he want
Billy even had a girl, but he called her friend
Didn't like to claim, her name, he likes to play the game

You gotta be down, down, down for the right thing
You can't mess around, be close to the rightious
You gotta be down, down, down for the right thing
You can't mess around, be close to the rightious

Billy told Betty that he was leavin town
He started gettin worried from the word around
Billy got babies over here and over there
He's startin to fade away because he's so damn scared

You gotta be down, down, down for the right thing
You can't mess around, be close to the rightious
You gotta be down, down, down for the right thing
You can't mess around, be close to the rightious

Billy don't tell me that you're feelin bad
The only way you can do that is if you're feelin sad
I always heard that you were a strong man
And the word around is that that man won't hang his head

You gotta be down, down, down for the right thing
You can't mess around, be close to the rightious
You gotta be down, down, down for the right thing
You can't mess around, be close to the rightious
