Big Bad Bill (is Sweet William Now) Lyrics

Van Halen Big Bad Bill (is Sweet William Now)

Well, way down yonder in Louisville,
Lived a cat named Big Bad Bill
I wants to tell ya
Ah the cat was rough and tough and would strutt his stuff
Had the whole town scared to death
When he walked by they all held their breath
He's a fighting man, sure enough
And then Bill got himself a wife
Now he leads a different life

Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Married life done changed him somehow
He's the man the town used to fear
Now they all call him sweet pappa Willie dear
Stronger than Samson I declare
Til the brown skinned woman
Bobbed his hair
Big Bad Bill don't fight any more
Doing the dishes, mopping up that floor
Well he used to go out drinking
Looking for a fight
Now he gotta see that woman, every night
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Ah play it boys
I likes that jazz

Big Bad Bill don't fight anymore
Doing the dishes, mopping up that floor
Well he used to go out drinking
Looking for a fight
Now he gotta see that woman, every night
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
Big Bad Bill is sweet William now
