Verse:
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Wally got lost in a patch of weeds,
AM C majorC G+G
and they found his body floating in the reeds
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF G+G
He said he'd gone fishing with the boy from across the creek
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Now here you come waking with a smile on your face
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Say you've found someone to love you in this loveless place,
A minorAm C majorC
And his name is Billy Prichard,
G+G FF G+G
and he don't think you're no freak
Chorus:
FF G+G
But I don't want him hanging around here, girl
FF G+G
His eyes are filled with evil
FF G+G
He's gonna drag you to the depths of hell

Verse:
A minorAm C majorC G+G
His daddy was a drunk and his mother a whore
A minorAm C majorC G+G
And every night another man would leave her door
A minorAm C majorC G+G
And his daddy'd take the money,
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF G+G
and he'd go get drunk some more
A minorAm C majorC G+G
They never spared the rod, but they still spoiled the child
A minorAm C majorC G+G
On debauchery and witchcraft and everything wild
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I'm telling you now daughter that he's wicked to the core
Chorus:
FF G+G
I don't want him hanging around here, girl
FF G+G
His eyes are filled with evil
FF G+G
He's gonna steal your heart and then your soul

Verse:
C majorC G+G FF G+G
Oh yeah, my little dove, don't you fly too far
C majorC
Don't you leave my aching heart

I don't want to see you leaving town

Don't want to see you hanging out with that weasel'

Verse:
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Daddy I don't believe a word you said
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Ever since the day that I learned that my brother was dead
A minorAm C majorC G+G
I've just come from Billy Pritchard's
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF G+G
and I know why your hands are red
A minorAm C majorC G+G
He said, You took him and Billy fishing by the old oak tree
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Told them both to wait for you, you had to go pee
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF G+G
Then you snuck up from behind, and you shot him in the head
A minorAm C majorC G+G
But you made a big mistake, father, don't you see
A minorAm C majorC G+G
They'd exchange hats underneath that oak tree
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF G+G
You shot your own son, and you blamed it all on Billy
Chorus:
FF G+G
Well I ain't gonna hang around here still,
FF G+G
Cause your eyes are filled with evil
FF G+G
I'm gonna tell the world and watch you hang

A minorAm C majorC G+G
Shut your mouth and come inside now, my little dove
A minorAm C majorC G+G
Get my gun, get my coat, get my gloves
A minorAm C majorC G+G
