Billy & Beau
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Dakota farmland, tabletop flat
Is where Billy and I grew up at
Billy was my friend since we were ten
So I guess I never thought about it much back then
That we both looked up to this farm boy
Beau, tall and strong from shoveling show
And baling hay, his big blue eyes
Are clear and bright as the prairie sky
The heart wants to go where the heart wants to go and you can’t undo it
Billy never told me so but I just knew it
Billy loved Beau
Beau won best goat at the 4H fair
And I went to state for my pie with pears
For raising a pig Billy won something too
And we all got to go on a trip to the zoo
Beau and Billy, they laughed and laughed
The whole way there and the whole way back
Billy put his arm around his bud and said: Beau, I sure had fun
The heart wants to go where the heart wants to go
And you can’t undo it
Billy never told me so but I just knew it
Billy loved Beau
Right out of school Billy just packed everything
In his pickup and never came back
Full scholarship to in Chicago
Made a lot of himself since twenty years ago
We haven’t seen hyde nor hair of Beau
Last we heard he’s still with the rodeo
He never got married, heard through the grapevine
But he broke a lot of hearts including Billy’s and mine
The heart wants to go where the heart wants to go
And you can’t undo it
Bill never told me so but I just knew it
Billy loved Beau
