Verse

Stack shot Billy in the back of the head
Stack made sure Billy Lyons was dead
.45 pistol in Stack's right hand
Sent him away to the promised land

Chorus

Stack shot Billy
.45
Stack shot Billy
Billy laid down and died

Verse

Stack Lee had himself an evil brain
Loved his gun and his sweet cocaine
Stack got quiet when the shadows fell
Knew soon enough that he'd burn in hell

Chorus

Stack shot Billy
.45
Stack shot Billy
Billy laid down and died
