She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said, "Don?t mind but what do you mean I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round?"
She said, "I am the one who will dance on the floor in the round"
She told me her name was Billie Jean
As she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
People always told me, "Be careful of what you do
And don?t go around breaking young girls hearts"
And mother always told me, "Be careful of who you love
And be careful of what you do ?cause the lie becomes the truth"
Billie Jean is not my lover
She?s just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one but the kid is not my son
For forty days and forty nights, law was on her side
But who can stand when she?s in demand, her schemes and plans
?Cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice
Do think twice, do think twice
She told my baby, we were dancing still three
Then she looked at me, then showed a photo
My baby cried ?cause his eyes were like mine, oh no
Though we'd dance on the floor in the round, baby
People always told me, "Be careful of what you do
And don?t go around breaking young girls hearts"
But she came and stood right by me then the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon, she called me to her room
Billie Jean is not my lover
She?s just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She?s just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son
Billie Jean is not my lover
She?s just a girl who claims that I am the one
The kid is not my son

Miscellaneous
Preacher And The Slave
THE PREACHER AND THE SLAVE
(Joe HilI)
Long-haired preachers come out every night,
Try to tell you what's wrong and what's right;
But when asked how 'bout something to eat
They will answer with voices so sweet:
Main Chorus:
You will eat, bye and bye,
In that glorious land above the sky;
Work and Pray, live on hay,
You'll get pie in the sky when you die.
And the starvation army they play,
And they sing and they clap and they pray.
Till they get all your coin on the drum,
Then they tell you when you are on the bum:
If you fight hard for children and wife
Try to get something good in this life
You're a sinner and bad man, they tell,
When you die you will sure go to hell.
Workingmen of all countries unite,
Side by side we for freedom will fight;
When the world and its wealth we have gained
To the grafters we'll sing this refrain:
Last Chorus:
You will eat, bye and bye,
When you've learned how to cook and to fry
Chop some wood, 'twill do you good
And you'll eat in the sweet bye and bye.
(Tune: In the Sweet Bye and Bye)
