Secret To A Long Life

Billy Barlow was a poor boy
That's why he robbed the UnionGrove Bank
He was a sweet talking ladies man
(F) That's what he'd have ladies all to think

The secret to a long life
Is knowing when it's time to go
The secret to a long life
Is knowing when it's time to go

So when the posse came riding
Billy went hiding down south
Holed up in a shack with Maria
With the black hair and the ruby red mouth

So when this news reached her lover
Billy ran for cover, don't you know
And when the bullets started ringing
Billy started singing "Time to go...."

Billy headed north where the
Sands of the Badlands blow
But in his dreams he's south
He's still kissing that ruby red mouth
