Lyrics
Secret To A Long Life 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 The secret to a long life Is knowing when it's time to go The secret to a long life Is knowing when it's time to go So when the posse came riding Billy went hiding down south Holed up in a shack with Maria With the black hair and the ruby red mouth So when this news reached her lover Billy ran for cover, don't you know And when the bullets started ringing Billy started singing "Time to go...." 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 Texas Campfire Tapes (Cooking Vinyl 1987) / Texas Campfire Takes (Mighty Sound 2003) Arkansas Traveler (Mercury 1992) / Arkansas Traveler (Mighty Sound 2004) !
