Wally got lost in a patch of weeds, 
AM        C                        G 
and they found his body floating in the reeds 
Am        C                        G                                        F        G 
He said he'd gone fishing with the boy from across the creek 
Am        C                        G 
Now here you come waking with a smile on your face 
Am        C                        G 
Say you've found someone to love you in this loveless place, 
Am        C                         
And his name is Billy Prichard, 
            G                            F        G 
and he don't think you're no freak 


[Refrão]

F                            G 
But I don't want him hanging around here, girl 
F                            G 
His eyes are filled with evil 
F                            G 
He's gonna drag you to the depths of hell

Verse 
Am        C                        G  
His daddy was a drunk and his mother a whore 
Am        C                        G 
And every night another man would leave her door 
Am        C                        G 
And his daddy'd take the money, 
Am        C                        G       F    G 
and he'd go get drunk some more 
Am        C                        G 
They never spared the rod, but they still spoiled the child 
Am        C                        G 
On debauchery and witchcraft and everything wild 
Am        C                        G 
I'm telling you now daughter that he's wicked to the core

His eyes are filled with evil 
F                            G 
He's gonna steal your heart and then your soul

Oh yeah, my little dove, don't you fly too far

Verse 
Am        C                        G 
Daddy I don't believe a word you said 
Am        C                        G 
Ever since the day that I learned that my brother was dead 
Am        C                        G 
I've just come from Billy Pritchard's 
Am        C                        G       F    G 
and I know why your hands are red 
Am        C                        G 
He said, You took him and Billy fishing by the old oak tree 
Am        C                        G 
Told them both to wait for you, you had to go pee 
Am        C                        G      F    G 
Then you snuck up from behind, and you shot him in the head 
Am        C                        G 
But you made a big mistake, father, don't you see 
Am        C                        G 
They'd exchange hats underneath that oak tree 
Am        C                        G        F     G 
You shot your own son, and you blamed it all on Billy

F                            G 
Well I ain't gonna hang around here still, 
F                            G 
Cause your eyes are filled with evil 
F                            G 
I'm gonna tell the world and watch you hang 


Coda 
Am        C                        G 
Shut your mouth and come inside now, my little dove 
Am        C                        G 
Get my gun, get my coat, get my gloves 
Am        C                        G 
Understand that everything I do is out of love
