Billy Baxter — текст песни (Paul Kelly)

I want to be like Billy Baxter
and lose my limitations
I want to be like Billy Baxter
and do imitations

Billy`s got a thousand faces
he`s a lover and a gambler too
Just to see him go through his paces
is a lesson for all the crew

`Coz he got a hungry heart
He got love to burn
`Coz he got a hungry heart
He got love to burn

Billy`s in love with abandon
but he never seems to lose control
He can walk right through disaster
everyone in pieces but he`s still whole

I want to be like Billy Baxter
and lose my limitations
I want to be like Billy Baxter
and do imitations

`Coz he got a hungry heart
He got love to burn
`Coz he got a hungry heart
He got love to burn

Hold it steady Billy
while I pour the wine
When you think you`re ready Billy
play that pantomime for me one time

I want to be like Billy Baxter
I want to be like Billy Baxter
I want to be like Billy Baxter
I want to be like Billy Baxter
(repeat to fade)
