Billy Barlow was a poor boy

That's why he robbed the Union Grove Bank

He was a sweet talking ladies man

That's what he'd have ladies all to think

So when the posse came riding

Billy went hiding down south

Holed up in a shack with Maria
D A E
With the black hair and her ruby red mouth
[Chorus]

Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go
D A E
Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go

So when the news reached her lover

Billy ran for cover, don't you know

Yeah, and when the bullets started ringing
D A E
Billy started singing "Time to go..."

D A E
Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go
D A E
Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go
E D A E
Oh....Oh....Oh....Oh.....Time to go now!

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

Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go
D A E
Oh the secret to a long life's knowing when it's time to go

Oh....Oh....Oh....Oh..... (x3)

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

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

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