Lyrics: Traditional
Music: Traditional

Sung by Robert Hunter with the Dinosaurs on 18 June 1983.

Tell old Bill when he gets home this morning
I tell old Bill when he gets home this evening
I tell old Bill when he gets home
To leave them downtown girls alone
This morning, this evening, so soon

They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon this morning
They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon this evening
They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon
They brought Bill home with his toes a-dragging
This morning, this evening, so soon

Oh no it can't be so, this morning
Oh no it can't be so, this evening
Oh no it can't be so
He just left home about an hour ago
This morning, this evening, so soon

Tell old Bill when he gets home this morning
Tell old Bill when he gets home this evening
Tell old Bill when he gets home
To leave them downtown girls alone
This morning, this evening, so soon

They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon this morning
They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon this evening
They brought Bill home, brought him home
Brought him home with his toes a-dragging
This morning, this evening, so soon
