Billy was a drover
He lived out on the three chain road
Fell in love with Mary and they married
She made his shack a home
He drove them off to Queensland
And it hurt to have to leave her on her own
But she promised shed be waiting
When he brought the cattle home
Theres a lonesome wind blowing down
The three chain road tonight
Its sending out a warning as she blows
Billy dont go riding down
The three chain road tonight
The wind is crying Billy please dont go
Billy came home early
He wasnt due for many days
Walked into the cabin and found his Mary
In a strangers arms she lay
In the blindness of his anger
The fatal shots rang out from Billys gun
In that smoky silence he knew
And he wept for what hed done
Theres a lonesome wind blowing down
The three chain road tonight
Its sending out a warning as she blows
Billy dont go riding down
The three chain road tonight
The wind is crying Billy please dont go
Billy walked out slowly
He knew what must be done
Somewhere in the darkness a shot rang out
Billys time had come
They say his spirits out there
You can feel it every time the cold wind blows
Its warding off the strangers
Who come by the three chain road
Theres a lonesome wind blowing down
The three chain road tonight
Its sending out a warning as she blows
Billy dont go riding down
The three chain road tonight
Theres a lonesome wind blowing down
The three chain road tonight
Its sending out a warning as she blows
Billy dont go riding down
The three chain road tonight
The wind is crying Billy please dont go
