Текст (слова) песни: Elton John - The Ballad of Danny Bailey (1909-34)
Some punk with a shotgun killed young Danny Bailey In cold blood, in the lobby of a downtown motel Killed him in anger, a force he couldn`t handle Helped pull the trigger that cut short his life And there`s not many knew him the way that we did Sure enough he was a wild one, but then aren`t most hungry kids
Now it`s all over Danny Bailey And the harvest is in Dillinger`s dead I guess the cops won again Now it`s all over Danny Bailey And the harvest is in
We`re running short of heroes back up here in the hills Without Danny Bailey we`re gonna have to break up our stills So mark his grave well `cause Kentucky loved him Born and raised a proper, I guess life just bugged him And he found faith in danger, a lifestyle he lived by A running gun youngster in a sad restless age
