Billy's friends are gathering round.
This is when the chips come down.
He didn't have to ask, he didn't make a sound,
Billy's friends are gathering round.

Billy is a strong, strong man.
He never was the kind who ran.
He can handle this if anybody can,
'Cause Billy is a strong, strong man.
Billy is a friend of mine,
We were kids together,
Playing games of our design
In Michigan weather.
We were boys becoming men.
We were different somehow.
Well, it never mattered then,
And it doesn't matter now.
Billy got some bad news today.
Billy hardly knew what to say.
He went to the doctor, doctor turned away.
Billy got some bad news today.
Oh, he went to the doctor, doctor turned away.
Billy got some bad news today.
