[C] [G]
[C]
While Bill was born in Illinois [F] on dry [C] and fertile land,
A pioneer of pistol ears and [D] a dead [G] shot with each hand.
To [C] blame he was the quickest, there's few [G] who'd ill-agree,
Few yet [C] saw his planes with drawstrips gleam like demon's glee.
[C]
He led a stagecoach freight team in [F] his early day [C] life,
One evening on the western trail [D] Bill took the [G] air of night.
[F] A roost come [C] upon him, [F] but a barren [G] he'd awoke,
[C] While Bill produced his Bowie knife and fashion they knew Pope.
[A]
[C] [G] [C]
Kansas prairie he knew well and wild Missouri too,
From 1861 [D] till [G] dawn the Union blew.
Not unlike his daddy he'd seen old man and bond,
Every man in Jimmy Lane's brigade of [C] hiccup they would fawn.
While the Marshall and Abilene and Texans came to call,
Philco told John Westharden [G] while Bill was got in law,
[F] He's a cruel and brutish yank and if you don't then [G] I will.
Well [C] Bill put down Philco and Westharden's living still.

He met his fate in Deadwood [F] inside Tom [C] Noddall's place,
[F] Amidst a [C] game of poker holding [D] aces and two [G] eights.
[F] Well an upstep from [C] behind him a coward Jack [G] McCall,
[C] Slug ripped through [F] his Auburn hair poor [G]
while Bill never [C] saw.
