Folks say I'm a bad man
I should be hung
They say there ain't much I can
Do without a gun
In my hand, in my hand
I won't get no tombstone
No maker for my grave
No, I won't have much to show
If I don't behave
When the preached, I never heard a sound
But if there's anybody up there looking down
Please be kind enough to help me turn around
Turn around
You won't get no tombstone
No marker for your grave
You won't have much to show
If you don't d behave
But when the preacher preached, I never heard a sound
And if there's anybody up there looking down
He didn't help me turn around
Because folks say I'm a bad man
Yeah I should be hung
My name is Billy Bonney
I'm only twenty-one
Twenty-one, twenty- one
I'm only twenty-one
Please don't shoot me
Mmm... ah ..
