Me and Ole Crazy Bill

Wes Helm, Bill Dees

Me and ole crazy Bill met up on a farm in Oklahoma
He was diggin' in the clay
I was a sleep-in maid cookin' for a dozen farmhands from all over For a sharecropper's pay
It wasn't much, but I was glad to get it
'Cause I was just a baby with a baby gettin' bigger every day

I liked ole crazy Bill the first time that he sat down at the table
He come in off the road, eatin' with his hands
He still wore the dust from North Dakota from the rodeo
Crazy Bill was an Indian and he told me all about him working
With the Wild West show

Sunshine, raindrops falls on every head, he said
Don't cry, sunshine's just beyond the hill

Me and ole crazy Bill pulled up stakes and headed for the big time
We was livin' on a dream being number one
Rodeoed until the pain got to me down in Abilene
That's where I had my baby
And crazy Bill was treating me like I was the queen of all queens

I watched ole crazy Bill passing out the cigars to the cowboys
Like my baby was his own
I guess that's when I knew all that matters in this life is love
And love is home
Now every time I wanna cry
I remember what he told me not so long ago

Sunshine, raindrops falls on every head, he said
Don't cry, sunshine's just beyond the hill
