Hey Willie Boy Lyrics - Townes Van Zandt

Hey Willie boy, what you gonna do? 

When the wind blows cold the moon turns blue 

Build me a fire gonna dance and sing 

A little bit of winter don't mean a thing 

A little bit of winter don't mean a thing 

Hey Willie, when the birds arrive 

The flowers bloom while the clouds float by 

Tell my puppies and my turtles and things 

All Gods children need a little spring 

All Gods children need a little spring 

Hey Willie boy, where you gonna go? 

When the grass gets sticky and the wind blows slow 

Down to the river gonna jump right in 

A little bit of summer can't be no sin 

A little bit of summer can't be no sin 

Hey Willie, how you gonna feel? 

When the leaves turn gold beneath your heels 

Twirl and spin never gonna fall 

Fallin' just won't do at all 

No that wouldn't do at all
