[00:00:02] Billy Dee(Live At The Philharmonic) - Kris Kristofferson

[00:00:03] Written by：Kris Kristofferson

[00:00:09] Oh Billy Dee was seventeen when he turned twenty-one

[00:00:14] Fooling with some foolish things he could've left alone

[00:00:18] But he had to try to satisfy a thirst he couldn't name

[00:00:24] Driven toward the darkness by the devils in his veins

[00:00:30] All around the honky-tonks searching for a sign

[00:00:35] Getting by on getting high on women words and wine

[00:00:39] Some folks called him crazy lord and others called him free

[00:00:44] We just called us lucky for the love of Billy Dee

[00:01:00] Busy goin' his own way and speakin' his own words

[00:01:04] Facin' and forgettin' every warnin' that he heard

[00:01:09] Makin' friends and takin' any crazy chance he could

[00:01:55] Singing songs and bringin' laughter to the likes of you and me

[00:02:00] 'Cause the world he saw was sadder than the one he hoped to find

[00:02:05] But it wasn't near as lonesome as the one he left behind

[00:02:12] Yesterday they found him on the floor of his hotel

[00:02:17] Reachin' toward the needle lord that drove him down to hell

[00:02:21] Some said it was suicide others blame the speed

[00:02:26] We just called it crucified when Billy Dee OD'd
