Billy the Bum
- Billy the bum lived by the thumb
- And sang of the hobo's delight
- He'd prove he could run
- Twice as fast as the sun
- By losing his shadow at night
- Now he loved every girl
- In this curly headed world
- But no one will know it seems
- For two twisted legs and a childhood disease
- Left Billy just a bum in his dreams
- -John Prine
