Billy Overcame His Size
Written and recorded by Merle Haggard

C
Billy never made the football team
G7
Cause Billy's size was small

But Billy's brother was a mighty lad
C
And played lot of high school ball


And Billy's daddy never favored him
F
He cared to the bigger guys
C
But later on in a bigger way
G7 C
Billy overcame his size


The years flew by and Billy grew
G7
But he never got very big

We called him Shorty but never got mad
C
He was always good for a dig


But we paid no mind when he fell in line
F
And left with the other guys
C
And the sergeant left that skinny frame
G7 C
But Billy overcame his size

F
Billy overcame his size
C Am
Yeah Billy overcame his size
C G7
Later on in a bigger way
C
Billy overcame his size


Billy's brother made a football star
G7
And the biggest man in town

And the scholarship that kept him home
C
Never seemed to bring him down


But on the other hand his brother Bill
F
Put pride in his daddy's eyes
C
When he died to save those other men
G7 C
Billy overcame his size

F
Billy overcame his size
C Am
Yeah Billy overcame his size
C G7
When he died to save those other men
C
Billy overcame his size
