[Intro]
E A E A
[Verse 1]
E
Mister Billy Bountain was 80 years old
A
A southern man’s son, an old time soul.
E
See Billy, really done some hard time
A
Paroled San Quentin after serving a dime
E
So Billy, Billy Bountain was all but soft.
A
Shacked with twin pitbulls in his uptown loft.
E A
His side chick said “you gon’ get pinched”.
“Not a snow balls chance if I can help it.”
[Chorus]
E
Cuz I’m Billy, Billy Bountain The hookup man.
A
Your One stop shop for ya weed and cocaine.
E
A knockaround guy when most men ain’t.
A
An entrepreneur of all the finer things.
E
See da girls in town loved Billy Boutain.
A
He dare hookup man for da weed and cocaine.
E
He could smoke like a butterfly, hum like a bee.
A
Could Out-toke Willie with his Appalachian green.
[Verse 2]
E
Billy worked all night then slept all day.
A
Made his honkey tonk livin up and down Broadway.
E
One night, Waylon and Willie came to town.
A
Their bus overheated, out on 32 South.
E
They knew Billy Bountain had the good stuff.
A
Scraped up a grand so they had enough.
E
Billy sang a song, might have been four.
A
Then dropped a half pound powder ball from his guitar.
E
He was calm, cool, couldn’t tell a thing,
A
from the music Row legend of Billy Bountain.
[Chorus]
E
He’s Billy, Billy Bountain The hookup man.
A
One stop shop for ya weed and cocaine.
E
A knockaround guy when most men ain’t
A
An entrepreneur of all the finer things.
E
See da girls in town loved Billy Boutain.
A
He dare hookup man for da weed and cocaine.
E
He could smoke like a butterfly, hum like a bee.
A
Could Out-toke Willie with his Appalachian Green.
[Verse 3]
E
Nashvegas hit different back in 84.
A
All da deals were done behind studio doors.
E
Knock, knock, knock came the FBI.
A
Waylon flushed it all down to save his ass one night.
E
Billy ended up on the 5 o’clock News.
A
As Waylon’s hookup guy, Johnny Cash, Too.
E
All of a sudden, Billy’s life was changed.
A
Might as wella put this ass in the Hall of Fame.
[Chorus]
E
Readin’ Billy, Billy Bountain The hookup man.
A
Your One stop shop for ya weed and cocaine.
E
A knockaround guy when most men ain’t
A
An entrepreneur of all the finer things.
E
See da girls in town loved Billy Boutain.
A
He dare hookup man for da weed and cocaine.
E
He could smoke like a butterfly, hum like a bee.
A
Could Out-toke Willie with his Appalachian green.
