Billy ran around with the rare old crew. And he knew an arsenal from Tottenham
blue We'd be a darn sight better off if we knew Where Billy's bones are resting
now Billy saw a copper and he hit hime in the knee Took him down from six foot
to five foot three Then he hit him fair and square in the do-re-me That copper
won't be having any family Hey Billy son where are you now, don't you know that
we Need you now With aratata and the old kow-tow where are Billy's bones Resting
now Billy went away with the peace keeping force cause he Liked a bloddy good
fight of course Went away in an old khaki van to the banks of the river Jordan
Billy saw the Arabs and he had'em on the run when he got'em In the range of his
sub machine gun Then he got the Israelis in his sights, went ra-ta-ta And they
ran like Shi-ites Hey Billy Son where are you now, One night Billy had a rare
old time, laughing and singing on The Lebanon line Came back to camp not looking
too pretty never even got To see the Holy City Now Billy's out there in the
desert sun and his mother cries When the morning comes And there's mother's
crying all over the world, for their poor Dead darling boys and girls Hey Billy
son where are you now, Born on a Monday, married on a Tuesday, Drunk on a
Wednesday, got plugged on a Thursday, sick on a Friday, Died on a Saturday,
