I'm wacko from Waco
Ain't no doubt about it
Shot a man there in the head
But can't talk much about it
He was trying to shoot me
But he took too long to aim
Anybody in my place
Would have done the same
I don't start fights I finish fights
That's the way I'll always be
I'm wacko from Waco
You best not mess with me
Joe Jamal said I was like
A fly in buttermilk
Trapped in a Waco bottle
I was bound to get kilt
Dar Jamal said Billy
Houston's where you need to be
If you're going back to Waco
You're leaving without me
It's nice to be important
More important to be nice
If you're shootin' dice in Waco
You'll roll snake eyes every time
I was born in Corsicana
They said Billy can you do it
I said course I can
Just point it out
And I'll get right to it
Corsicana Texas has been real good to me
They knew I had to shoot that man
Before that man shot me
I should have known the truth
Would finally set me free
I guess living down in Waco
Made a wacko out of me
Wacko from Waco is still on the run
A writer a singer a son of a gun
Don't cross him don't boss him
Stay out of his way
Don't give him no trouble
Cause you'll just make his day
I'm damned if I don't damned if I do
I'm wacko from Waco I'm telling you the truth
I'm damned if I don't damned if I do
I'm wacko from Waco
You finally heard the truth
