I'm a 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 a wacko from Waco, you best not mess with me
Joe Jamail said I was like a fly in buttermilk
Trapped in a Waco bottle, I was bound to get kilt
Dar Jamail 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, "O' 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 set me free
I guess living down in Waco made a wacko out of me
A wacko from Waco is still on the run
A singer, a writer, a son of a gun
Don't cross him, don't boss him
Stay out of his way
Don't give him no trouble or you'll just make his day
I'm damned if I don't damned if I do
I'm a wacko from Waco I'm telling you the truth
I'm damned if I don't, damned if I do
I'm a wacko from Waco
You finally heard the truth
